Technical Data Controls
Technical Data Controls Under ITAR

Under ITAR, "technical data" includes any information required for the design, development, production, manufacture, assembly, operation, repair, testing, maintenance or modification of defense articles. Controlling this data is one of the most operationally demanding aspects of ITAR compliance — and one of the most frequently violated...

Case Study — Halcyon Aerospace Systems

Halcyon Aerospace Systems, a mid-sized airframe subcontractor, shared a CAD model of a structural component with an overseas supplier via an unsecured file transfer service. Despite the supplier holding a valid TAA, the data shared exceeded what was authorized — constituting an unlicensed export of technical data.

Module Quiz — Question 2 of 5
Which of the following is considered "technical data" under ITAR?
CAD drawings of a component on the US Munitions List
Marketing materials describing publicly available products
An employee org chart with no technical details
A vendor invoice for non-defense office supplies
↻ Questions and answer order randomize on every attempt
