看起来HTTPS很重要

我发现这个来自美国工业和安全局的常见问题解答非常有用。

加密

问题15(什么是注释4?)是重点:

...

被注释4排除在第2部分第5类中的项目包括但不限于以下项目:

消费者应用程序。一些例子:

piracy and theft prevention for software or music; music, movies, tunes/music, digital photos – players, recorders and organizers games/gaming – devices, runtime software, HDMI and other component interfaces, development tools LCD TV, Blu-ray / DVD, video on demand (VoD), cinema, digital video recorders (DVRs) / personal video recorders (PVRs) – devices, on-line media guides, commercial content integrity and protection, HDMI and other component interfaces (not videoconferencing); printers, copiers, scanners, digital cameras, Internet cameras – including parts and sub-assemblies household utilities and appliances

以正确的方式获得应用批准并不难。SSL (HTTPS/TLS)仍然是加密，除非您只是将其用于身份验证，否则您应该获得适当的批准。我刚刚获得了批准，我的应用程序现在已经在商店中使用SSL加密数据流量(而不仅仅是身份验证)。

下面是我写的一篇博客文章，这样其他人就可以用正确的方法来做这件事。

苹果iTunes出口限制

是的，根据iTunes Connect出口合规性信息屏幕，如果您使用内置的iOS或MacOS加密(keychain, https)，则您是在为美国政府出口法规的目的使用加密。你是否有资格获得出口合规性豁免取决于你的应用程序做什么以及它如何使用这种加密。附图显示iTunes Connect出口合规屏幕，以帮助您确定您的出口报告义务。它特别指出:

如果您正在使用ATS或呼叫HTTPS，请注意您需要向美国政府提交一份年终自我分类报告。了解更多

I asked Apple the very same question and got the answer (from a Sr. Export Compliance Specialist), that "sending information over https is forcing the data to go through a secure channel from SSL, therefore it falls under the U.S. Government requirement for a CCATS review and approval." Note that it doesn't matter that Apple has already done this for their SSL implementation, but for the government, if you USE encryption that is the same (to them) as you would've coded it yourself. I also updated our blog (http://blog.theanimail.com) since Tim linked to it with updates and details on the process. Hope that helps.

如果你使用苹果提供的安全框架或CommonCrypto库，你的应用程序中包含了加密，你必须回答“是”——仅仅因为库是由苹果提供的，并不能让你摆脱困境。

关于最初的问题，最近在苹果开发论坛上的帖子让我相信，即使你只使用SSL，你也需要回答“是”。
