The former regulatory language explicitly identified certain products as not controlled under ECCN 5A002 if the encryption functionality was limited to certain intellectual property or copyright protection functions. Note 4 of this rule completely removes the identified products from Category 5, Part 2. See “What items are removed from encryption controls?” for additional guidance.
