US Government To Fund Replacing 1+ Million Dahua and Hikvision Cameras
With the NDAA ban in place for five years and the FCC's new authorization ban becoming law this year, many have complained about the cost of replacing Dahua and Hikvision.
Now, the US government is coming through with a sizeable amount of money that we estimate could replace the equivalent of 1 million Dahua and Hikvision cameras.
In this report, we examine the grant program, the application process, compliance requirements, and how the program helps the federal government achieve its NDAA ban goals.
