Abstract :
The need for such regulations is clear, but many firms underestimate the challenges of complying with the defense trade controls embodied in the US International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). Companies hoping to enter into defense contracts must therefore redefine their basic approach to technical data because the ITARs require that they control the destinations of their communications. For example, the ITARs prohibit unlicensed communications of sensitive data to foreign destinations (another country or a foreign national)
