BSA Faults Commerce’s Supply Chain Proposal

BSA | The Software Alliance warns of several problems with the Commerce Department’s proposed supply chain security regulation, meant to let the government block US companies from buying gear that poses a national security risk.
The Commerce Department’s proposed regulation for information and communications technology supply chain security is unworkable because it gives the Commerce secretary “unbounded discretion to review commercial ICT transactions, applying highly subjective criteria in an ad hoc and opaque process that lacks meaningful safeguards for companies,” the software trade group BSA said in comments filed this morning as part of the proceeding.
