Jan 14 (Reuters) &#8211; Chinese authorities have told domestic companies to stop using cybersecurity software made by roughly a \u200bdozen firms from the U.S. and Israel due \u200cto national security concerns, two people briefed on the matter said.Broadcom-owned VMware, Palo \u200cAlto Networks and Fortinet are among the U.S. firms whose cybersecurity software has been banned, while Check Point Software Technologies is among the Israeli companies, they said.Reuters was not able to \u2060establish how many Chinese \u200ccompanies received the notice, which the sources said was issued in recent days.Chinese authorities expressed concern \u200dthat the software could collect and transmit confidential information abroad, said the sources, who declined to be named due to the sensitivity of \u200bthe situation.China&#8217;s internet regulator, the Cyberspace Administration of China, \u200cand the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology had not responded to requests for comment at the time of publication. The four companies also did not reply to Reuters queries.As the U.S. and China battle for tech supremacy amid heightened trade \u2060and diplomatic tensions, Beijing has been \u200bkeen to replace Western-made technology with \u200bdomestic alternatives.While its efforts to build up its semiconductor and artificial intelligence sectors have dominated headlines, it \u200dhas also sought \u2060to replace Western computer equipment and word processing software.Chinese analysts have also said that Beijing has become increasingly \u2060concerned that Western equipment could be hacked by foreign powers.(Reporting by Beijing \u200cand Shanghai newsrooms; Additional reporting by Raphael Satter in \u200cWashington; Editing by Edwina Gibbs)<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exclusive-Beijing tells Chinese firms to stop using US, Israeli cybersecurity software, sources say https:\/\/uk.news.yahoo.com\/exclusive-beijing-tells-chinese-firms-094036030.html Publish&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":177868,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/en\/reuters-finance.com\/9c10a4c9e3ff8010627692cfef978234","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[20,24],"class_list":["post-177867","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-cybersecurity"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/177867"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=177867"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/177867\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":177869,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/177867\/revisions\/177869"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/177868"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=177867"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=177867"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=177867"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
