exportassure™'s Export Compliance API for Application Protection

Overview

In large and medium-sized enterprises, various applications have been configured/built and implemented over time that contain and manage export-controlled technical data: supplier/customer portals, ERP applications, PLM systems, Document Management Systems, and more. The data in those applications must be protected the same as emails, documents, etc., so that collaboration and normal every-day business can take place using those applications.

exportassure™ has created a software development kit and API for this very purpose – so that export-sensitive technical data assets in any application can be protected from unauthorized exports.

Below is a diagram that illustrates how the API integrates and interacts with other systems to provide protection.

Specific Features & Benefits

The exportassure™ Compliance API has the following features:

• Simplified integration using Web Services API for platform independence
• Universal Classification Scheme can be applied to classify data residing in various applications / data models
• Ability to map protected application users to exportassure™ users, so that key user information like citizenship, nationalities, location, organization, and more can be used for accurate export control decision-making
• Complete audit traceability of every call, every decision and the reasoning behind the results
