Database encryption

Hi all,

 

I am interested in the database encryption implementation in wxSQLite3. It is using 128 bit AES.

 

Does this falls under EAR (Export Administration Regulations)?

 

Is there ECCN number to export or use in Japan?

 

Thanks.

 

Regards,

Chong

I'm not a lawyer but to the best of my knowledge this software does not fall under the regulation of the
Wassenaar agreement of the European Union since it is free open source software.

But if you live in the United States and want to export products using this software you may require a
specific license from the United States Government. It would be your responsibility to obtain such a
license before exporting.

Ulrich

Re: Database encryption

Hi Ulrich,

Thanks for the information.

I am not living in United States. Would there be any issue if the encryption
implementation is included in the software product to be market worldwide
including United States?

Thanks.

Regards,
Chong

I don't see any such issues if you are using the encryption implementation as an integral part of your
product to protect your database against manipulation from outside your application. It might depend on
the kind of product you have in mind, though. If the purpose of your product is legal, you're certainly on
the safe side. But as said before I'm not a lawyer.

Ulrich

Re: Database encryption

Thank you very much for the information.

The development of wxSQLite3 is 100% outside of United State?

Thanks.

Chong
