La FCC prolonge les mises à jour pour les drones et routeurs interdits jusqu'en 2029

La Federal Communications Commission a prolongé jusqu'en janvier 2029 la date limite pour les mises à jour logicielles et du micrologiciel sur certains drones et routeurs interdits. Cette mesure concerne les appareils ajoutés à une liste de sécurité nationale fin 2025 et début 2026.

Le Bureau d'ingénierie et de technologie de la FCC a publié cette annonce le 8 mai. Elle autorise les mises à jour visant à atténuer les risques pour les consommateurs américains concernant les systèmes d'aéronefs sans équipage et les routeurs de fabrication étrangère figurant sur la liste couverte des équipements de communication.
