The American Technology Council Elaine Duke - Acting Director of Homeland Security Albany High School Position on the Relationship of U.S. Tech Companies with China The future of America’s dominance in the international technology sector is no longer secure. The emergence of countries such as China, whose economy functions under different operating framework than the United States, gives China a competitive advantage over the U.S. that poses a legitimate and imminent threat to the success of U.S. tech companies (Fallows).

Passive hacking will de ter IP theft from foreign companies and states while mitigating the risk of accidental offensive hacking against innocent companies. Not only do Chinese companies and state-actors steal American intellectual property, they also use this stolen IP to unfairly compete with American companies in the Chinese market. This is done through the China Compulsory Certificate (CCC). All foreign companies must obtain this safety certificate before participating in Chinese markets (Blair). However, when the certification is obtained China demands that companies provide detailed schematics of their products which the Chinese government then provides to Chinese companies, enabling IP theft and counterfeiting (Blair). To solve this problem the DHS proposes that the CCC commision submit itself to a non-partisan international oversight body which will protect the safety of Chinese consumers, the stated purpose of the CCC. Moreover, the oversight body will ensure the CCC is not abused to disadvantage foreign companies. Understandably, political pressure will be needed to ensure that China allows this policy.Show MoreRelatedDigi1251 Words   |  6 PagesDigi Telecommunications Digi uses Sugar Professionalâ„ ¢ to manage enterprise customer relationships and ensure high level of customer satisfaction Company Profile Headquarters Shah Alam, Malaysia Company Description DiGi is a leading mobile communications company providing a comprehensive range of affordable, convenient and easy to use wireless services to simplify and enrich the lives of its customers.
