The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is an agency of the United States Department of Commerce that deals with issues involving national security and high technology. A principal goal for the bureau is helping stop proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, while furthering the growth of United States exports. The Bureau is led by the Under Secretary of Commerce for Industry and Security. The mission of the BIS is to advance U.S. national security, foreign policy, and economic interests. BIS's activities include regulating the export of sensitive goods and dual-use technologies in an effective and efficient manner; enforcing export control, anti-boycott, and public safety laws; cooperating with and assisting other countries on export control and strategic trade issues; assisting U.S. industry to comply with international arms control agreements; monitoring the viability of the U.S. defense-industrial base; and promoting federal initiatives and public-private partnerships to protect the nation's critical infrastructures. Items on the Commerce Control List (CCL) - which includes many sensitive goods and technologies like encryption software - require a permit from the Department of Commerce before they can be exported. To determine whether an export permit is required, an Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) is used. ==Organization== The Bureau of Industry and Security, a component of the United States Department of Commerce, is organized by the United States Secretary of Commerce as follows: *Under Secretary of Commerce for Industry and Security * *Deputy Under Secretary of Commerce for Industry and Security * *Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Export Administration * * *Office of National Security and Technology Transfer Controls * * *Office of Nonproliferation and Treaty Compliance * * *Office of Strategic Industries and Economic Security * * *Office of Exporter Services * * *Office of Technology Evaluation * *Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Export Enforcement * * *Office of Export Enforcement * * *Office of Enforcement Analysis * * *Office of Antiboycott Compliance 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bureau of Industry and Security」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
