About ITAR
Established in 1976 during the Cold War, ITAR is a set of U.S. government regulations that govern the export of defense-related articles, services, and technical data. These regulations ensure that sensitive military technology and information are only accessed by U.S. persons or organizations authorized by the U.S. Department of State.
