Five pieces in this topic

Technology transfer and how a release decision is made

The instruction the decision runs on, the categories that trigger a review, and the route that starts one before a request is filed.

Disclosure of classified military information

The rule against implying an answer, the officials who can give one, and the agreement that has to exist before a conversation can happen.

Export licenses and customs clearance on a shipment

The exemption that replaces a license, the conditions on it, and the party that still has to clear customs at both ends.

Technical data and what a purchaser can be given

The definition and its two exclusions, the training boundary that runs through everything, and the separate tests for maintenance and for production.

Anti-tamper and system specific release requirements

The plan that has to be approved 60 days before an offer, the presumption against certain transfers, and the two releases that gate a communications security sale.
