SideChannel (OTCQB: SDCH), a provider of cybersecurity products and services to emerging, middle-market and enterprise companies, was featured in an interview segment with Forum Daily. SideChannel’s CEO and cybersecurity expert Brian Haugli joined the program to discuss privacy and security concerns surrounding TikTok as Canada joins the U.S. and other countries in banning the app from government devices. “This is a story that has been developing for quite some time. The concern is not necessarily the app itself but that TikTok is owned by a company called ByteDance, which is domiciled and headquartered inside of China,” Haugli said. “The concern from a national security standpoint stems from the data that TikTok, the application itself, can have access to on your phone. Then that data is stored inside and controlled by ByteDance. We know that the CCP or the Chinese Communist Party has the ability to reach into, coerce, influence and access data on companies that are domiciled or headquartered in China. So, this becomes a national security threat concern, at least from the United States’ standpoint, that foreign adversaries have access to data on U.S. citizens. And, if those citizens happen to be government employees and TikTok is installed on a government phone, access to the data that the application is installed on.”
