In 2021, multiple media outlets reported an investigation by cybersecurity firm Dark Cubed, suggesting that Tuya's network-connected devices were subject to China's
Data Security Law, and "are woefully insecure and sending data to China." Tuya Smart was invited to and participated in the China-Europe Cyber Norms Forum, co-hosted by the Research Center for Global Cyberspace Governance (RCGCG) and the Cyber Security Governance of Leiden University in The Hague, Netherlands, on March 20, 2024. The forum brought together experts and professionals from the European Institute for Security Studies, the Cyber Security Governance of Leiden University, DigiChina,
Bonn University, and
TÜV SÜD. Representatives from prominent EU programs, such as the EU Cyber Direct-EU Cyber Diplomacy Initiative project and The Hague Programme on International Cyber Security, were also in attendance to collectively explore the latest developments and emerging trends in cybersecurity." == References ==
