A multinational real-estate holdings corporation is planning to deploy strong encryption software developed in the United States to its South American offices. Which regulation would most directly impact this deployment?
Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA)
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
Export Administration Regulations (EAR)
Basel III Framework
The correct answer is the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). EAR specifically governs the export of dual-use items from the United States, including encryption software and technologies. When a company plans to deploy strong encryption software developed in the U.S. to international locations, they must comply with EAR requirements, which may include obtaining proper licenses or determining if exemptions apply based on the destination country, encryption strength, and intended use. Failure to comply with EAR can result in significant penalties, including fines and restriction of export privileges.
Other US encryption regulations, such as International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), apply to encryption but are not applicable in this scenario.
Security professionals need to understand these regulations when planning global technology deployments that involve cryptographic technologies.
