My apologies to the list if this is a lame question, but someone asked me
what the procedure is, now, for a U.S.-based company, to get permission to
send strong encryption products to wholly-owned subsidiaries abroad, for
use in communications between those offices and the U.S. headquarters.
And I realized that I don't know the answer, at least not for a company
that wants to do things legally and correctly, but wants to avoid making
too many false starts by asking the wrong people for permission.
Any direction and/or tips much appreciated (if possible, they would like to
avoid the process taking forever).
Cheers...Stephen
