This upgrade covers 8 remote control products in Bluetooth and voice categories, with a focus on optimizing three major security modules: using AES-256 encryption algorithm to encrypt the entire transmission of voice commands to prevent command interception; Added 'Offline Voice Mode', allowing users to choose to process instructions locally to avoid uploading data to the cloud; Set up hierarchical management of permissions, and third-party device connections require secondary verification through a mobile app. Users can obtain upgrade packages for free through the official CHUNGHOP app or product website, and old products can be shipped to the factory for hardware upgrades.
As the gateway to smart homes, safety is the bottom line, "said the quality manager of CHUNGHOP Electronics. The company has established a regular safety monitoring mechanism and conducts penetration testing with third-party organizations every quarter. This upgrade responds to last month's initiative by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to strengthen privacy protection for smart terminals, further consolidating consumers' trust in the "CHUNGHOP" brand.
