Security Evaluation
1. Device Security
| Criterion | Value | Proof | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Known hardware tampering | Rare | 🔗 Proof | Equipped with hardware trusted root and StarShield architecture, signed secure boot and firmware anti-rollback. Public reproducible hardware tampering cases are rare. |
| Known vulnerabilities | Rare | 🔗 Proof | HUAWEI publishes network device security bulletins. Home flagship router receives periodic firmware security patches. Public high-risk exploitable vulnerabilities are rare and patched quickly. |
| Prior attacks | Rare | 🔗 Proof | No large-scale targeted public attacks against BE7 Pro. Firmware signature verification and TEE isolation raise attack barriers; documented successful attacks are rare. |
| Updatability | Very common | 🔗 Proof | Supports remote OTA firmware upgrade via Smart Home App and web page, regular security patch and feature update delivery. Stable update channel. |
| Category Score | Score: 2 / 3 | ||
2. System Security
| Criterion | Value | Proof | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Authentication with other systems | Full | 🔗 Proof | Supports HUAWEI ID binding, Mesh device authentication, IoT device access authentication, certificate-based Wi‑Fi/Mesh link authentication. |
| Communications | Encrypted with up-to-date encryption | 🔗 Proof | Wi‑Fi supports WPA3 encryption; remote management uses TLS1.3; IoT control channel encrypted, supports firewall, blacklist and child internet control. |
| Storage | Encrypted with up-to-date encryption | 🔗 Proof | Configuration data, Wi‑Fi keys and access credentials are encrypted by hardware crypto engine and stored in isolated secure partition. Credentials cannot be extracted easily. |
| Category Score | Score: 1 / 3 | ||
