Find the Tools to Control Data as Part of an ITAR Compliance Program


US International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) is a set of United States government regulations to control the export and import of defense-related articles and services. The US Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) strongly encourages organizations to create ITAR compliance programs for record keeping including the identification, receipt and tracking of ITAR controlled items and technical data.

TITUS solutions allow organizations governed by ITAR to secure their information (email and documents) as part of an ITAR compliance program. This security ensures that only authorized employees can view ITAR restricted information. The solution also limits the possibility of sensitive information being distributed to unauthorized users.

TITUS solutions have several features that can help organizations build compliance for ITAR related information:

  • SECURE DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT - TITUS security solution for Microsoft SharePoint allows organizations to secure documents that have been tagged as ITAR restricted. TITUS Metadata Security for SharePoint provides for secure document management of ITAR related documents.
  • LABELING OF ITAR RELATED OR RESTRICTED INFORMATION - TITUS classification solutions automatically apply visual labels to email and documents such as headers, footers, and watermarks which clearly identify the existence of sensitive information and encourages proper handling.
  • AUTOMATIC SCAN OF CONTENT - TITUS Message Classification can automatically scan the content of email to detect sensitive ITAR information and can immediately warn or prevent the user from sending messages that contains ITAR information.
  • SAFE RECIPIENT CHECKING - when sending ITAR information via email, Message Classification can check to make sure the information is not being sent to individuals that do not have the authorization to view the material. These checks are done at the desktop before the email is sent.
