Encryption algorithms in ActiveMQ?

[Don Asper <do...@sas.com>]

Hi: Does ActiveMQ contain encryption algorithms that preclude it from being
shipped to other countries? I see on the ActiveMQ website that password
encryption can be done using encrypt and decrypt options of the activemq
command, for example. Is other encryption or decryption done by ActiveMQ or
is that always done by applications using it via plugins? Thanks.

The ECCN classification of ActiveMQ is given as 5D002, see
http://www.apache.org/licenses/exports/

I believe this is a self-classification.

To answer your question, this bit is relevant (my bolding):

"Products classified as ECCN 5D002 , are exported by the ASF under the TSU
exception in EAR 740.13(e) , which applies to software containing or
designed for use with encryption software that is publicly available as open
source. Exception TSU further provides that " Posting encryption source code
and corresponding object code on the Internet (e.g., FTP or World Wide Web
site) where it may be downloaded by anyone neither establishes "knowledge"
of a prohibited export or reexport for purposes of this paragraph, nor
triggers any "red flags" necessitating the affirmative duty to inquire[...]
" *Note that exporters other than the ASF within the US may or may not be
eligable for exception TSU*, and it is each specific exporter's
responsibility to understand and comply with all export regulations
applicable within their jurisdiction."
