The most recent Federal Register notice details the Bureau of Industry and Security's decision to add four entities to its Entity List. The listed companies, located in Israel, Russia, and Singapore, are deemed to be acting contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. This action imposes additional license requirements and a presumption of denial for exports, re-exports, or transfers involving these entities. The decision, made by the End-User Review Committee, is based on concerns regarding spyware development and trafficking in cyber exploits.
