I read that the US Government has relaxed the export restrictions on encryption products. Can the JSSE 1.0.3 reference implementation be downloaded by any organization, anywhere?
While there has been some relaxation in the export requirements, there are many restrictions still in place for strong encryption products. Go to http://www.epic.org/crypto/export_controls/regs_1_00.html for the complete 33 page report. In addition, some countries may have import restrictions. Note also that a vendor’s product status is dependent on the type of application they have with the US government — JSSE 1.0.3 has been classified as ENC/Retail. Contrary to some articles in the press, export of encryption technology is still a complicated, multi-dimensional issue. You are advised to consult your export/import control counsel or attorney to determine the exact requirements. • Q: Now that the export requirements have been relaxed, can I download the JSSE 1.0.3 reference implementation if I’m in a country that has been subject to a US Government embargo? A: No. Even with an ENC/Retail classification, the countries on the US Government embargo list may not receive ANY US-developed
