Subject: A ban on cryptography in Russia
Edict no.334 (April 3, 1995) of the President of Russian Federation imposes an all-embracing ban on all cryptographic systems except those licensed by the Federal Agency for Governmental Communications and Information. Section 4 bans all activities in development, production, sales and use of unlicensed cryptographic systems as well as rendering cryptographic services. Section 5 bans import of unlicensed cryptographic systems. Section 6 instructs Federal Counterintelligence and other agencies to detect violations of this edict.
