The Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, among other functions, is responsible for the registration, issuance and maintenance of a register of permits. The FSB license allows commercial companies, individual entrepreneurs, and organizations of variable legal forms to work in areas affecting strategically important information. The latter include state secrets, confidential, personal data.

Legal basis

Why do you need an FSB license? The law requires it to be issued for activities related to:

• use of data representing state secrets - including the provision of services/performance of work in which it is involved;
• creation of security information tools containing and working with the above information;
• cryptography, encryption technology.

Work that directly or indirectly affects the above areas is carried out only with the permission of the FSB of Russia. In practice, the principle means the following. Companies and individual entrepreneurs wishing to cooperate on a commercial basis with a sensitive facility must take care of obtaining a permit. It doesn’t matter what the company is going to do - restore monuments in areas with a special regime, provide accounting, engineering, cleaning services, erect buildings, outbuildings, and so on. You need to go through a standardized procedure and participate in a tender for a government order. Typically, an application to the local Office of the authority takes up to four to five months; if received through separate divisions, it takes up to two.

The legislation fixes the need for the procedure in the state regulations of the Russian Federation:

• Laws - No. 5485-1, 57-FZ, 99-FZ, 152-FZ;
• Presidential Decree No. 1203;
• Regulations approved by the Government by resolutions No. 333 (04/15/1995), 63 (02/06/2010).

Fundamental norms complement specific, “narrow-profile” ones. Information technology enterprises working with confidential information are guided by Government Decree No. 79 and Federal Law No. 152.

Having found out why the FSB license is needed, it is worth pointing out: there is a division into two conditional groups - activities related to state secrets and encryption/cryptography. A significant part of commercial organizations are faced with the first type of work. They require a license related to state secrets.

Issuance of a license for access to state secrets

The official permit document of the FSB of Russia, which allows working with “closed” data, is issued by a specialized body - the LSZ Center of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation. Applying for the first time, the applicant has the right to obtain a permit valid for three years, and again - for five years. The license area is all of Russia plus institutions located outside the borders but belonging to the country.

When providing services or performing work at sensitive special facilities, entrepreneurs/companies are forced to encounter secret information and must “interact” with information within the framework of the Law - for which an FSB license is needed. It is required:

• construction companies constructing, reconstructing, and performing major repairs of buildings belonging to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Penitentiary Service, the Ministry of Defense, etc.;
• private structures guarding sensitive/secret/special facilities;
• trade and catering organizations working with “closed” organizations;
• IT companies, installers of fire and alarm systems, cryptographers and other companies/entrepreneurs who come into contact with “closed” data of national importance.

When contacting the Health Care Center, the application indicates why the FSB license is needed. The list is compiled in free form and is quite arbitrary, since permits are not classified by type of activity. The Security Service does not issue any separate “restoration” or “construction” documents - the rights granted by the license apply to any legal activity related to classified information.

Registration procedure

In order for a company to officially work with state secrets, the manager must obtain clearance. There are three forms:

• the first is the maximum degree (nuclear weapon launch codes);
• the second - “top secret”, issued in extreme cases, with serious justification, after agreement with the first department, verification activities;
• the third is “secret”, formalized by employees of security structures in a routine manner at their own discretion, with the submission of a report to the local Administration.

Heads of executing companies and individual entrepreneurs receive permits of the third form - as an individual - and:

• undergo training at a certified institution;
• receive drug treatment and psychiatric certificates confirming that there are no contraindications to work;
• submit a questionnaire to the FSB of Russia and undergo an interview by invitation.

A successful interview completes the issuance of a permit. The director, in addition to him, needs four photos 4cm/6cm, a copy of the foreign passport. The company submits to the licensing authority the original application of the customer of services/works, information about managers, details, contact numbers, mail addresses. It is necessary to pay the state fee (the price is regularly adjusted), provide notarized copies of:

• charter with registered amendments, constituent agreement;
• OGRN/GRN certificates, TIN assignment;
• letters from the State Statistics Service (statistical codes);
• decisions/protocol on the creation of a legal entity, election of a general director;
• extracts from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (not older than 20 days before the filing date);
• rental agreement, legal address (must match the real one), evidence of ownership of the premises.

Copies along with the application and questionnaire are submitted to the local Center. At the same time, the enterprise undergoes an examination, and its management undergoes certification. Information technology companies need an additional special license from FSTEC. Even without it, the package is voluminous, which is why professional assistance is required in obtaining an FSB license. Support will allow you to reduce time costs and get started quickly.

The standard procedure for obtaining permits to carry out activities is as follows:

• checking the company, receiving the customer’s application;
• training the general director, obtaining permits for him;
• compilation of a package of documentation submitted to the Central Labor Protection Center;
• examination of the EAC, transfer of the documentation package to the licensing Center.

Cryptographic and encryption licenses

TsLSZ issues permits granting the right to develop, manufacture, and sell cryptography, encryption, and data protection tools. The procedure for obtaining is similar to that described above, so assistance in obtaining an FSB license of this type is appropriate and in demand. It is worth resorting to support when performing work, providing services in the field of information encryption, maintenance of telecommunications and information systems.

Permission is required for organizations that install, assemble, maintain encryption and cryptographic tools, and provide secure communication channels to customers. To get it you will need:

• fulfill the company's personnel requirements by preparing appropriate confirmations;
• confirm the ownership of equipment (testing, control and measurement), the legitimacy of the software;
• provide security clearances;
• guarantee the confidentiality of information.

Three years after receiving the permit, they undergo a scheduled examination. During the audit, the declared equipment, software, employee qualifications, and certificates are verified.

Dedicated support will help simplify licensing. Territories for which an FSB license is promptly issued are Moscow, St. Petersburg, regions. The advantages of support are guarantees of correctness, legality, timeliness, saving effort, qualified and comprehensive advice.

According to Russian legislation, when business entities work with information data protected by the state, they are first required to undergo an expert assessment procedure of the organization’s operating conditions in the FSB of Russia.

Based on the results of expert work, an appropriate permit (license) is issued. The document is valid in Russia and abroad (in cases where the business entity carrying out licensed activities is under the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation).

Which structures require

Obtaining a special permit from the FSB is necessary to work at military infrastructure facilities and enterprises with a special regime of activity.

These include life support facilities, enterprises operating in industry, the field of environmental safety, especially valuable complexes of the cultural heritage of the peoples of the Russian Federation (museums, libraries, scientific and artistic organizations, theaters, archival funds).

Licensees can be:

• business entities in the construction industry (general and special profile);

• security service units, private security companies;
• companies performing their functions in the IT field,
• commercial and industrial commercial structures.

The FSB permit allows enterprises of all forms of ownership to participate in open and closed competitive bidding, and to take part in joint activities with commercial enterprises established by the state.

What types of activities are subject to licensing control?

Specific types of activities that require a state secret license from the FSB are established in the process of working on a package of documents submitted by the applicant for examination. Regulatory documents of the Government of the Russian Federation define a general list of such work.

These include the following:

1. Construction of buildings and structures at facilities of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, nuclear industry enterprises, and other sensitive facilities with enhanced security measures.
2. Development and implementation of control measures to protect state-protected information from unauthorized access by third parties.
3. Carrying out work to develop the procurement system in the nuclear and energy industries.

Please note: upon initial licensing in order to obtain permission to carry out activities using classified data, a state secret license is issued for a period of 3 years. Upon subsequent renewal, the license term increases to 5 years. At the same time, the re-licensing procedure is simplified.

Any type of activity at a sensitive facility requires licensing from the TsLSZ FSB of Russia, and only with the issuance of the appropriate permit is access to information containing confidential information possible. Licensing examination and issuance of permits are carried out within a period of 3 to 12 months.

Order

The procedure for obtaining a license for state secrets from the FSB provides for preparatory measures, including the formation by the applicant of a standard package of documents and the actual licensing examination of the activities of the legal entity.

The examination for compliance with licensing requirements is carried out by authorized persons as part of a special commission.

During the inspection, the level of competence of the licensee’s manager is established, and whether the director has a special form of access to classified data. Additionally, the working conditions of the secret-security unit are studied, and methods for protecting confidential data are clarified.

Stages

Licensing for the purpose of obtaining permission to work with classified data includes a number of actions that are combined into two main stages.

At the first stage, the manager's clearance to classified information is checked. The minimum requirement is the third form of admission (there are no restrictions on traveling abroad).

This stage takes a lot of time, since if the first person of the enterprise does not have access to confidential information, it must be formalized and appropriate verification measures must be carried out. In addition, all close relatives of the manager are subject to verification procedures.

The second stage contains measures to verify the authenticity of documents sent to the FSB for granting a license.

During the examination, the following documents are analyzed:

• personal data for the manager, security clearance;
• activities of a service customer who has information classified by the state as protected;
• contract for maintenance of a sensitive facility;
• system for working with secret documents, paperwork procedures.

Access to classified information of a higher level provides grounds for issuing access to data of a lower level of secrecy. If the head of an enterprise has open access to protected information, this significantly reduces the time required for consideration of an application for the purpose of issuing a license for state secrets.

What is an FSB license, see the following video:

Activities in the field of work related to CIPF and encryption are regulated by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation, which clarifies 99-FZ regarding the licensing of near-cryptographic work. Let us remind you that the federal law“On licensing of certain types of activities” lists the types of activities that can be carried out only on the basis of a special permit, that is, a license.

	Kind of activity	Difficulty obtaining a license	When relevant
	Resale of CIPF	Slightly below average	If necessary, expand the range of products sold using encryption means
	Resale, installation and maintenance (configuration) of CIPF		When issuing electronic signature certificates (for example, for working with electronic trading platforms), when installing and configuring CIPF or systems inextricably linked with CIPF for clients, for information encryption services
	Resale, installation, maintenance and development of own systems using CIPF	Above average	When developing or producing products that include CIPF, or when integrating CIPF into your products, or when repairing CIPF

In practice, an FSB license is applied for in two cases: after an inspection by a regulatory authority so that the activity is not suspended (usually one of the requirements in an order to eliminate comments is to obtain a license), or when a company decides to expand the range of goods and/or services beyond account of licensed activities, so as not to lose income or market share, and possibly expand the circle of clients.

Features of obtaining an FSB license, including for a tender

When obtaining an FSB license, the following facts must be taken into account:

2. Since the end of October 2012, the procedure for obtaining an application from government agencies, which is required to successfully complete the licensing procedure with the FSB, has become more complicated. Many authorities and companies that used to issue them are simply not listed today, and in some cases, applications from them can even be harmful. Thus, without receiving new documents from verified government officials. authorities and corporations are difficult to get by.

The validity period of initially issued licenses is 3 years, repeated ones are increased to 5 years, it is valid throughout the entire territory of the Russian Federation and beyond its borders within the walls of institutions belonging to the Russian Federation.

Subject to the licensing procedure are, most often, sensitive state facilities, enterprises participating in tenders held by the state, developing programs aimed at protecting information, managing personal data databases, IT technologies and others, the work process of which involves information that is a state secret. Even if an enterprise provides services for the supply of food products, equipment, repairs, construction, reconstruction at sensitive facilities, a license must be obtained for these types of work provided. Restoration of cultural and historical monuments also falls into this list.
