Hikvision secures inaugural EUCC certification for its DeepinView network cameras, marking a first in the video‑surveillance sector

Executive summary: Hikvision's DeepinView network camera series obtained the EUCC (European Cybersecurity Certification) based on Common Criteria, the first such certification in the surveillance‑camera sector. The EUCC is required for many European public‑sector surveillance contracts; achieving it signals compliance and can improve market access in the EU.

Who is involved: Hikvision, the EUCC certification body, and European regulators that mandate the certification for government procurement.

Likely next: Competitors are expected to pursue EUCC certification to remain eligible for EU contracts, and Hikvision may leverage the badge in its sales and pricing strategy.

On July 20 2026, Hikvision announced that its DeepinView (iDS-2CD7x) line of network cameras received the European Cybersecurity Certification (EUCC) based on Common Criteria. The certification confirms that the cameras meet the EU's baseline security requirements for networked devices, a prerequisite for many public‑sector contracts in Europe. As the first vendor to achieve this seal in the surveillance camera market, Hikvision may gain a competitive edge in EU tenders, while other manufacturers are likely to follow suit to maintain market access.
