BXA, UK Ban, McCain-Kerrey
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

In response to Greg Broiles' and Ulf Möller's posts and the prospect of a UK ban on non-escrowed encryption next Tuesday: Opening Address Under Secretary William A. Reinsch Bureau of Export Administration U.S. Department of Commerce Update West 98 Los Angeles, California February 10, 1998 [Excerpt] Encryption One of the reasons why our licensing load is inching back up is the transfer of encryption licensing to Commerce earlier this year. No speech from me would be complete without a paragraph on encryption, so here it is. Our policy is intended to balance the competing interests of privacy, electronic commerce, law enforcement, and national security. We believe that use of key recovery technologies is the best way to achieve that balance. We do not focus narrowly on a single technology or approach. We expect the market to make those judgments, but we are taking steps to facilitate the development and dissemination of these products. Our regulations allow recoverable encryption products of any strength and key length to be exported freely after a single review by the government. To encourage movement toward recoverable products, we have also created a special, two-year liberalization period during which companies may export 56 bit DES or equivalent products provided they submit plans to develop key recovery products. This provides an incentive for manufacturers to develop these products, which in turn will facilitate the development of key management infrastructures. So far, we have approved 47 plans, from companies large and small, and have five more pending. In terms of licenses, in calendar year 1997, we received 2076 applications, and approved 1801 licenses with a dollar value of $4.7 billion. (The reason for the high dollar value is because we approve encryption licensing arrangements for extended periods of time, from 4 to 10 years.) The interagency working group on cryptography policy, which includes representatives from BXA, NSA, and the FBI, continue to meet to discuss ways to streamline the licensing process on encryption export licenses. Several items have been identified and progress is being made in these areas. We have established a pre-Operating Committee group to discuss contentious cases. In part as a result, no encryption cases have been escalated to the OC since mid-December. We have created an Autolist to eliminate agency referrals. So far, we have agreed to list specific products amounting to 20% of the products we see. This means, once implemented, that a subset of licenses can be processed by Commerce without prior referral to other agencies. Finally, we have posted on our web page "helpful hints" to make the encryption licensing process more transparent: http://www.bxa.doc.gov/encguide.htm We continue to work on other initiatives to streamline the process. We are also discussing with our trading partners a common approach to encryption policy. We have found that most major producing countries have public safety and national security concerns similar to ours. We are working together with these governments to ensure that our policies are compatible, and that they facilitate the emergence of a key management infrastructure. With respect to legislation, we believe the McCain-Kerrey Bill, S. 909, the Secure Public Networks Act, provides a sound basis for legislation acceptable to both Congress and the Administration. In particular, we appreciate the bill's explicit recognition of the need to balance competing objectives and of the potential for key recovery to become a market-driven mechanism to facilitate maintaining that balance. ... [Other excerpts of speeches by BXA officials at the seminar:] Encryption Controls Export Enforcement has new responsibilities in the encryption area. Over the past year, Export Enforcement has opened many new investigations involving alleged violations of the encryption regulations. These cases are being watched very closely. The national security of the United States depends in part on the government's ability to obtain timely information about the activities and plans of potentially hostile foreign parties, such as terrorists and drug dealers. ... the Department of Justice and National Security Agency participate in processing licenses for encryption. ... The increase in licenses we are experiencing is attributable not only to increased exports, but to transfer of items from the Munitions List to Commerce jurisdiction. Encryption licenses account for a significant portion of the increase. We created a special division to handle those. As of today, there is only one encryption case that has been pending over 40 days. ----- For full speeches: http://jya.com/bxa-west98.htm

Pauline Hanson's Newsletter
by Global Web Builders 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Issue 1.7, February 1998 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- PLEASE NOTE: No unsolicited email is sent. If you do not want to be on the mailing list please say "REMOVE" in the subject line and return this message in the body. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear supporters in NSW, You may not have seen the recent article in the Australian Financial Review (3rd Feb 1998). Here is a short summary. The subject is political donations: Over 90% of loans (or $4,650,000) to the Liberal Party have been made by one body - the Greenfields Foundation. This organisation has strong links with the Liberal Party's funding vehicle, the Free Enterprise Foundation which was caught out in the 1995 crackdown of the disclosure law. The post box of both is the same and the trustee of the Free Enterprise Foundation since 1981, Tony Bandle, responded to the Australian Electoral's Enquiries about disclosures by the Greenfields Foundation. The Greenfields Foundation has 'lent' the Liberal Party over 80% of its total donations to avoid disclosing just who the donors to Greenfields are. We know that most large donations received by both the Liberal and Australian Labor Party are from multinationals - the benefactors of the multilateral agreement on investment (MAI) (eg Village Roadshow over $200,000; ANZ Bank over $100,000). Benefactors of the MAI, like media giant News Limited, have gone out of their way to try to close down donations to One Nation by alleging large commissions and rewards for One Nation National Director David Ettridge. These claims are false and have one aim - to financially cripple Pauline Hanson's One Nation while multinationals quietly throw hundreds of thousands of dollars at the major parties to support their next federal campaign - one would be a fool to believe there is no contra. Meanwhile, the Liberal Party have refused to return over $50,000 to me after my win in the seat of Oxley. Most of the money would be used by me to benefit the Oxley electorate. See my on-line press release for full details: http://www.gwb.com.au/onenation/press/130298a.html Finally, on the subject of political donations it should come therefore as no surprise that both Kim Beazley and John Howard's foreign minister Alexander Downer have said that 'MAI is good for Australia'. Please visit: http://www.gwb.com.au/mai.html and be the judge. We desperately need your donations to ensure that One Nation can present a strong case at the next Federal Election. We are calling on 'people power' - that's you - to help us by making a donation, no matter how small it is important. If you believe, like I do that Australia has got to be turned around what cost can be too much for the sake of our children and their children? Please contact the Manly office on (02) 9976 0283 or complete and return the donation form at: http://www.gwb.com.au/onenation/funds.html For those of you who are members of Pauline Hanson's One Nation we are holding a celebration of the party's first anniversary over the Easter Weekend (April 10-12) on my rural property near Ipswich in South East Queensland. In true Australian style camping and bar-b-ques under the starlit sky will be the order of the day. There will be competitions, entertainment like bush dancing, karaoke and horse racing - and much, much more. If you are interested please contact (07) 3369 8214, 3848 2197, 3399 6662 or 3399 6901 for details. Costs range from $25 per day for adults or just $45 for the three. Families from $55 for the one day to $85 for the three. Book before you put this one in your diary (limited numbers)!

Beating the UK Crypto ban.
by James A. Donald 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

-- Supposedly the UK is not going to prohibit cryptography, the kindly and benevolent government is merely going to protect us from irresponsible certificate authorities by licensing the issue of certificates. Thus in theory the ban should not affect Crypto Kong, which does not rely on certificates, does not attempt to address the question of which Bob is the real Bob. Instead it merely checks that the Bob who signed one letter is the same Bob as the Bob who signed the other letter. (And you can make an encrypted reply to any signed document) --digsig James A. Donald 6YeGpsZR+nOTh/cGwvITnSR3TdzclVpR0+pr3YYQdkG CK7qsZEkDlKWk1tmxpi8TmOY5r7pCmwM+xlgxk5x 4pFtHUXCAe4Hr1r3Zj40b35HrJbyCKusv0OUOt/Yo --------------------------------------------------------------------- We have the right to defend ourselves and our property, because of the kind of animals that we are. True law derives from this right, not from the arbitrary power of the state. http://www.jim.com/jamesd/
