Integrate export compliance into your software distribution processes. Penalties and loss of export rights due to non-compliance can be devastating to a software business, and the exposure grows with every download, key issuance, and account created outside a controlled process. OMS SafeHarbor provides the tools to implement, track, and audit your compliance activities as part of distribution rather than alongside it.
Compliance where the transaction happens
List-checking runs against the transaction itself — the account being created, the entitlement being granted, the download being requested — instead of running as a periodic review after the fact. Because delivery, entitlements, and licensing are on the same platform, screening happens at the moment there is something to screen, and a check that does not pass stops the transaction rather than generating a report about one that already completed.
An audit trail you can hand to a reviewer
The value of a compliance programme is measured largely by what you can demonstrate. The platform records compliance activity as it occurs, so you can show which transactions were screened, when, and what the outcome was, without reconstructing the history from logs across several systems. That record is what turns a defensible process into a demonstrably defensible one during an internal review or an external inquiry.
Who it’s for
Software publishers distributing internationally, organisations whose products or customers fall under export control obligations, and compliance and legal teams that currently rely on distribution being handled correctly by people rather than being enforced by process. It is also the capability that most often justifies consolidating delivery in the first place: compliance can only be enforced at the point of distribution if distribution runs through one place.
What you get
- Export compliance list-checking embedded directly in distribution and entitlement workflows
- Tools to implement, track, and audit compliance activity
- A retained record of screening decisions for internal and external review
- Reduced exposure to penalties and loss of export rights arising from uncontrolled distribution
