The State Department fined a Silicon Valley radar manufacturer that sold software and equipment to China, Russia and 15 other countries
WASHINGTON—The State Department on Monday fined a Silicon Valley radar manufacturer that acknowledged violating rules governing the export of sensitive U.S. defense technology.
The company, Keysight Technologies , Inc., sold software and equipment to China, Russia and 15 other countries beginning in 2015, amounting to 24 instances of unauthorized export, the department said. The software, known as multi-emitter scenario generation, can be used to model and simulate forms of electronic warfare. The State Department said some of the violations harmed U.S. national security.
Keysight agreed to pay a fine of $6.6 million, with the department suspending $2.5 million if the company spends the funds on compliance measures. The company also agreed to hire an officer to audit its compliance program. “The settlement demonstrates the Department’s role in strengthening U.S. industry by protecting technical data from unauthorized exports,” the State Department said in a statement. It “also highlights the importance of obtaining appropriate authorization from the Department for exporting software as well as determining proper export jurisdiction.”
