New Information Security Items OGEL
Although in use since April 2018 its worth mentioning again now as it is a very easy and quick licence to use for most items classified under 5A002. This is a European Union licence so can be used in all 28 member states. The main advantages are
- Approval usually in 24 hours.
- Coverage in well over 100 countries.
- Covers all standard encryption algorithms.
- Covers most networking systems
The main simple conditions are (all licence conditions should be checked prior to use)
- Supply the data sheet to the export licensing office on first export only of a given product.
- Licence use reporting once per year.
It really is that simple. There are instances where you can also use an EU GEA 001 which still should be used as a preference so this is very good for the countries not covered.
