SecureMyResearch: Security for Research Productivity

Abstract

Securing research data, especially meeting new and stricter regulatory and other cybersecurity requirements, is becoming a challenge for both researchers and campus units at IU that support research. To help them navigate this complex landscape, IU is launching SecureMyResearch, a collaborative effort by the Center of Applied Cybersecurity Research (CACR), the Information Security division within the Office of the Vice President for IT, and UITS Research Technologies. Its goal is to accelerate research by empowering researchers with a resource that reduces both their cybersecurity and compliance burden and risk to regulated and open research data at IU. This presentation will describe SecureMyResearch and how it aims to weave research data security and compliance into the institutional fabric.
