NVIDIA H20 chip is under investigation due to security risks.

NVIDIA was summoned by the Cyberspace Administration of China to explain the security risks of the H20 chip

According to information from China Internet Information Center, recently, NVIDIA's computing chips were exposed to serious security issues. Previously, U.S. legislators called for requiring advanced chips exported from the U.S. to be equipped with "tracking and positioning" functions. U.S. experts in the field of artificial intelligence revealed that NVIDIA's computing chips have "tracking and positioning" and "remote shutdown" technologies that are already mature. In order to safeguard the cybersecurity and data security of Chinese users, based on relevant provisions of the Cybersecurity Law, the Data Security Law, and the Personal Information Protection Law, the Cyberspace Administration of China summoned NVIDIA on July 31, 2025, requiring NVIDIA to explain the security risks of backdoors and vulnerabilities in the H20 computing chips sold to China and submit relevant proof materials.

At the beginning of July, the U.S. government approved NVIDIA's export license to sell H20 chips to the Chinese market, and NVIDIA resumed shipping.
