BRITAIN: SIGNIFICANT PROBLEMS IN HUAWEI SOFTWARE

   British cybersecurity inspectors said Thursday they found significant technical issues in Chinese telecom supplier Huawei's software that pose risks for the country's mobile networks.
   The oversight's board annual report also criticized Huawei for making "no material progress" in fixing technical shortcomings noted in last year's report.
   It's the latest salvo in a global battle over Huawei, which the U.S. says could give the Chinese government backdoor access to sensitive data worldwide.
   The report said it's only possible to give "limited assurance" that long-term national security risks from Huawei's involvement in critical British telecom networks can be adequately managed.
