Cyber-Related Sanctions

The OFAC list is being updated to include persons engaging in significant malicious cyber-enabled activities. These entries on the OFAC list will include the identifier “[CYBER]”.

Property in accounts held by listed persons should be placed in a blocked account, and transfers involving listed persons should be refused – similar to other entities on the OFAC list.

This implements Executive Order 13694 of April 1, 2015 (“Blocking the Property of Certain Persons Engaging in Significant Malicious Cyber-Enabled Activities”).

OFAC intends to supplement this part 578 with a more comprehensive set of regulations, which may include additional interpretive and definitional guidance and additional general licenses and statements of licensing policy.
