Secure Research

The Secure Research Environment (SRE) is a new University virtual environment designed to protect sensitive and restricted research data from misuse and unauthorized access. The SRE is different from the current UMB research computing environment in that the computing resources, data storage and software are not located on a local desktop or laptop computer but are available in a secure Cloud infrastructure. The SRE minimizes risk to the institution and to the principal investigator of an unlawful exposure of sensitive data.

Please see the Guidebook for the Secure Research Environment, maintained by the University of Maryland, Baltimore here: https://www.umaryland.edu/cits/services/secure-research-environment-guidebook/
