This might exist for ALL grants that are sponsored by one of the agencies
with Security responsibilities.  Currently, these include, at least:

DHS
DOD
TREASURY
USDA (really)
DO ENERGY
STATE DEPT

Subject: [SECURITY] Grants/Research - Server Access question

Our Grants and Research Office is reviewing policies applicable to hiring
foreign nationals to do research.
They've come across language they describe as "policies for foreign
nationals with unrestricted access to company's servers."  They report
they've been "alerted that State Department licenses are required for
certain events"
including access to research servers.

I've not been able to identify what they might be talking about, beyond
being able to do standard stuff like identify a system/network user through
their uniquely assigned ID.

Do you require any special authorizations for foreign nationals who use your
systems to do research?  Are there any special consideration or concerns
that you see?
