US ITAR and EAR - Export Control and Data Security ITAR 120.50(a)(6) and 120.56(a)(4): Prevent decryption of controlled data outside the United States by unauthorised persons

Under the ITAR, using access information to cause technical data located outside the United States to be in unencrypted form is a release, and releasing previously encrypted data in that way is an export (120.50(a)(6), 120.56(a)(4)). A U.S. person who decrypts controlled data on a server abroad, or lets a foreign system decrypt it, therefore makes an export that needs authorisation unless an exemption applies. The encrypted-storage carve-out only protects data while it remains encrypted end to end; decryption points and key locations must be designed so that plaintext only exists where an authorisation or exemption covers it.
