The winds are rising; will your researchers' data be safe, or will it be scattered across the landscape? Using NIST reference standards, CWRU built a Secure Research Environment to provide both safe storage and a working environment for the most sensitive data. Such an undertaking required the cooperation of many offices across the University. A recent assessment tested our alignment with 800-171 guidelines.

Outcomes: Identify the institutional cooperation needed to bring such a project together * Understand the architecture meeting some NIST 800-171 recommendations * Serve your clients' growing interest in protecting research data
