This is a smart move for both Dahua and Pepper. Dahua needs a solution quickly and Pepper may be it. Other Chinese camera makers are likely to consider similar plans.

if when they do move into the commercial space, you could put together a SALTO and Pepper security solution.

From a cyber security level the chipsets from China can still contain embedded systems that can be used for packet relay and transmission to China. How will US consumers and the government be convinced that all components are safe considering the complexity of these devices?

From my understanding Avigilon is wholly manufactured and made in Texas. Also, Vicon features cameras made in the USA.

Another dog and pony show,it sounds to me like a political promise, sounds good, looks like it may work but never really lives up to the hype and a dismal failure in the end.

Who will provide firmware updates to the camera? The hardware can still phone home no? Will they submit the hardware design to third party to verify that it does not include hidden code?
FW upgrades means the code can be changed anytime it suits the government.

Despite being 9 months later there is no progress to speak of. Dahua has not responded to a request for an update on this and Pepper responded with:
We requested updates from both companies in light of the recent Dahua Critical Cloud Vulnerabilites.
