Wassenaar Arrangement: An international accord that governs the export of conventional arms and dual-use goods and technologies, such as advanced cryptographic systems, which can have both civilian and military applications. Its purpose is to prevent the proliferation of arms and sensitive technologies that could be misused to undermine security and stability, ensuring that transfers do not contribute to harmful military buildups or human rights abuses.
