An expertly written guide to the regulatory maze governing the intersection of technology and national security

In Navigating Technology and National Security: The Intersection of CFIUS, Team Telecom, AI Controls, and Other Regulations, cybersecurity and technology policy researcher, consultant, and professor Justin Sherman delivers a comprehensive explanation of US tech and national security regulations and review programs. The book is an accessible and thoroughly researched analysis of important regulatory regimes that govern sensitive and emerging technologies and data used in the United States and around the world, including:

• Committee on Foreign Investment in the US
• Export Controls
• Team Telecom
• ICT Supply Chain Program
• Cloud Know-Your-Customer Program
• Bulk Data Transfer Review Program
• Outbound Investment Screening

The author concisely describes the history of each program before explaining its legal basis (like the IEEPA) and covering relevant case studies on public enforcement actions and investigations. He also offers insightful and original analysis on the major strengths and weaknesses of each program.

The book also includes:

• Emerging issues and concrete takeaways for attorneys, technologists, investors, policymakers, and other stakeholders
• Discussions of the fast-moving threat space
• Potential ways that the United States might stumble - or succeed - in the implementation of new tech review programs and regulations moving forward
