America may soon ban the sale of TP-Link Internet routers made in China. This decision is being prepared in view of the threat to the security of devices in America. According to the Wall Street Journal report, Donald Trump may ban TP-Link routers as soon as he takes office as president in the new year.

America's newly elected President Donald Trump has already indicated that he will take a tough stand against China in his second term. This includes the decision to impose a duty of up to 60 percent on Chinese products. In this case, TP-Link says that its routers are being used in American homes and small businesses in America, which are available on e-commerce websites and are bestsellers. In a conversation with CBS, TP-Link said that its security methods are in line with industry standards in America.

US government departments also use it.

TP Link's routers are also used by many other government departments in the US, including the Department of Defense. However, the company claims that we implement rigorous secure product and testing. Wherever vulnerabilities are found, they are removed.

We are ready to check the security system.

The company said that many consumers in America may be the target of China-based hacking groups, but we are ready to prove in talks with the government that our security system is completely strong. We are fully prepared to deal with the US national security risks to the American market, American consumers.

Ongoing investigation against the company

The US Justice Department is investigating the company over whether it is selling routers in violation of the law on low prices, under which companies cannot sell products at a price lower than the cost of production. However, in this case, the company claims that it undercuts the prices of competitors, but does not sell any product at a price lower than the cost.

Microsoft report warned

In October this year, Microsoft published a research, which revealed that Chinese hackers had access to the storage of TP-Link routers. TP-Link said that the company "takes appropriate action to eliminate any vulnerabilities when they become aware of them. The company may also enter into an agreement with the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency or CISA, Secure-by-Design.
