How Technology Security Supports Security Assistance

Abstract

President Reagan already has alerted the American people to the critical importance of technology security. The President's statement on "Strategic Technology Export Controls," which was published in the Winter, 1988 issue of The DISAM Journal, noted the costly Toshiba- Kongsberg diversions of submarine technology to the Soviet Union.[l] The statement pointed out the subsequent improvements in export controls that have been instituted by the governments of Japan and Norway, and also called on all U.S. allies to strengthen their strategic trade control systems. Let me give you some background on the President's statement, explain more recent developments, and make clear why our technology security program is vital to the success of your efforts in security assistance management.
