Cameras fitted to a fleet of Royal Navy surveillance drones used by Britain’s elite special forces were found sending data to an internet address in China, raising concerns about security vulnerabilities in military equipment and defence supply chains.
The security breach was discovered during a routine cyber assessment of the K3 Scout drones, a £12 million ($16.2 million) fleet operated by the Royal Marines, per The Telegraph. The drones are also expected to be used in planned operations in the Persian Gulf.Cameras made unauthorised connections
The drones were fitted with camera components manufactured in China. During the security assessment, analysts found that the camera systems were establishing outbound connections to a server located in China.
The cameras were sending automated “heartbeat” communications, small data packets designed to tell a remote server that a device is switched on and operating.
Britain’s Ministry of Defence (MoD) intervened after the connections were detected and cut the cameras’ internet access to prevent further communication with the external server.MoD says no sensitive data was compromised
The MoD said an investigation found no evidence that its data or systems had been accessed, compromised or transmitted outside the UK.
“A thorough investigation found no evidence of MoD data or systems being accessed, compromised or transmitted externally,” an MoD spokesperson said.
