JERUSALEM : Israel said on Monday that countries interested in buying its cyber technologies would have to commit to using them to prevent only a limited list of terrorist acts and serious crimes.

An updated certificate to be signed by purchasing countries lists in detail what qualifies as"terrorist acts" - like attacks on people, public facilities, seizures of aircraft, the release of dangerous substances - as well as"serious crimes" referring to those that warrant imprisonment of six years or more.

It also spells out uses that are prohibited - like targeting people for political affiliation or applications that break that country's privacy laws - for which Israel could revoke licences and the systems be shut down. Those reports prompted Israel to review the cyber export policy administered by the Defence Ministry.
