Commerce Department announces new controls that would ban U.S. companies from exporting and reselling software and hardware tools that could be used to fuel authoritarian practices. The rule will become effective in 90 days and will effectively ban the export of “cybersecurity items” for National Security (NS) and Anti-terrorism reasons. It also establishes a new License Exception Authorized Cybersecurity Exports (ACE) that bans exports and resale of these items to problematic countries, such as China and Russia, without a license.”]
