Export Control and IT Modernization - Issues and Considerations Webinar



Does the word “cloud” make you break out in a cold sweat even if people are just talking about the weather...feel like the only person who has reservations about the rapid rise of workplace information-sharing and collaboration applications...tired of feeling that IT modernization is moving faster than export rules allow?

As the digital world continues to advance faster than export control regulations, this brings both industry and the regulators into uncharted territory.

    • ITAR v. EAR
  • What technical data/technology is and isn’t
