Research Cyber Security and Risk Documentation
Overview and Key Features:
- Document the security measures in place for an information system, and/or
- Outline how cyber security safeguards are implemented to mitigate risks associated with a research project.
As a result of these research cyber security and risk mitigation plans, researchers will receive the necessary security documentation for certain funding applications and research agreements. Document generation will be carried out in collaboration with the research team, as well as relevant technical and security staff.
Getting Started:
- Types of Documentation:
A cyber security plan aims to document, at a high level, the information security controls, practices and procedures in place for a research project and its associated information systems and solutions.
A cyber risk mitigation plan outlines the cyber security-related mitigations that have been or will be implemented to address various risks related to a research project (e.g., sharing data with external collaborators).
