Scenario:
- Server physically located in the U.S.
- Contains data encrypted using GnuPG or other
utilities
- Batch scripts on the server decrypt data, perform
processing, re-encrypt data.
- Server support staff includes admins located in
other countries (India, for instance).
Question: Do the U.S. export laws regulating the
dissemenation of cryptographic materials apply to
admins in foreign countries who remotely administer
systems and data located in the U.S.?
Those admins have access to the source code and/or
compiled binaries that encrypt and decrypt the data,
and would have the ability to ftp back and forth from
the server.
Anyone have any comment? [Particularly you non-US
guys who administer data located in the U.S.]
