        <RULE_TITLE>Implementation of the Wassenaar Arrangement List of Dual-Use Items and Other Revisions to Encryption Items</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to reflect changes made to the Wassenaar Arrangement List of dual-use items, and to update and clarify other provisions of the EAR pertaining to encryption export controls.  For the first time, mass market encryption commodities and software with symmetric key lengths exceeding 64 bits may be exported and reexported No License Required (NLR) under Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs) 5A992 and 5D992, following a 30-day review by the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS).  This rule updates Category 5--part II (Information Security) of the Commerce Control List (CCL), and for the first time allows equipment controlled under ECCN 5B002 to be exported and reexported under License Exception ENC.  For all other information security items, including encryption source code that would be considered publicly available, this rule updates and clarifies existing notification, review, licensing and post-export reporting requirements.  Restrictions on exports and reexports of encryption items to terrorist-supporting states (Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Sudan and Syria), their nationals and other sanctioned entities are not changed by this rule.]]></ABSTRACT>
