Hikvision, a leader in the security industry, has unveiled its 2025 Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) report, reaffirming its commitment to sustainability and social responsibility. The company emphasizes its dedication to the concept of 'Tech for Good', championing technology that serves the collective well-being of society. This year marks eight consecutive years of transparent ESG reporting, demonstrating Hikvision's consistent efforts in addressing sustainable development issues.
A Commitment to Sustainability
Guided by its sustainable development philosophy known as THRIVE, Hikvision’s report highlights the importance of technological innovation, product quality, and cybersecurity as key pillars for achieving its sustainability goals. The new report has refined its dual materiality assessment to prioritize these issues.
In an age where technology plays a pivotal role in everyday life, Hikvision has pledged to leverage its resources towards enhancing societal well-being through pioneering solutions. Notably, in the realm of urban governance, the company has developed end-to-end monitoring systems to safeguard critical infrastructure, including over 300 devices and 140 scenario-based solutions for traffic management.
Hikvision's commitment extends beyond mere business operations, emphasizing a holistic approach to social action. The STAR program, which spans 14 countries and regions, supports ecological observations in places like the Pyrenees and conducts research on the Himalayan glaciers. Furthermore, its STAR Installer Partner 2025 initiative assembles a global network that provides essential technical assistance.
Enhancing Trust through Cybersecurity and Quality Assurance
To bolster digital trust, Hikvision has established a comprehensive cybersecurity framework designed to enhance management practices. This initiative has yielded unprecedented results, including a 100% vulnerability correction rate in 2025, earning the prestigious Digital Trust Assurance Award from the British Standards Institution (BSI).
In product quality management, standardized digital processes have been implemented to ensure reliability, significantly boosting Hikvision's intellectual property portfolio, with 7,399 invention patent applications linked to its core business and 1,553 new patents granted in 2025.
Ensuring Compliance and Data Protection
Hikvision adheres to global best practices by effectively integrating compliance requirements into its daily operations. In 2025, the company achieved ISO 37301 certification and published a document titled "Hikvision's Journey Practicing Responsible AI," highlighting its firm commitment to the responsible development of artificial intelligence. The protection of personal data remains a priority; in 2025, Hikvision successfully completed annual audits for several international standards, including ISO/IEC 27701, and sensitized 100% of its staff on personal data protection.
Accelerating Climate Action
Hikvision aims to address climate change with a multi-tier governance structure supporting decarbonization through four main pillars: low-carbon products, smart manufacturing, digital empowerment, and eco-friendly operations. As part of its impact strategy, the company launched the GPA platform to improve the management capabilities of green products. By the end of 2025, 169 models had undergone a carbon inventory, and seven WonderHub smart displays became the world's first large-format displays certified under TCO Certified Generation 10.
By aligning with the ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact, Hikvision continues to promote responsible governance and sustainable business practices, as evidenced by recent ESG recognitions, including the EcoVadis Silver Medal and the DMCC Global Enterprise ESG Leader award. Looking ahead, Hikvision is committed to continuous improvement and long-term value creation, collaborating with stakeholders for a more resilient and sustainable world.
