How to Classify Your Product: Is It Defence, Dual-Use, or Civil?

06/02/2026 | Didrik Bech, CONFIDEE
In my previous article, I discussed the importance of documenting and vetting your supply chain. But even the most transparent and controlled supply chain will not protect a company that does not properly classify its product.
