China drone maker DJI turns to independent audit in fight against US ban

Chinese drone manufacturer DJI is facing a potential loss of $1.5 billion in sales this year due to a U.S. ban on foreign-made drones. In response to these challenges, DJI commissioned an independent audit conducted by a U.S.-based cybersecurity firm, which concluded that two of its drone models did not exhibit significant security vulnerabilities and found no evidence of data transmission outside the United States. This audit comes as the company seeks to counteract the restrictions imposed by the U.S. government, which previously allowed DJI to dominate the American commercial drone market, where it sold over half of the drones prior to the ban. The findings of the audit may play a crucial role in DJI's efforts to navigate the regulatory landscape and restore its standing in the U.S. market.
