ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder Research Cybersecurity Program
The Research Innovation Office (RIO) and the are implementing a new program to address recent changes in cybersecurity requirements implemented by the US federal government.ÌýThe ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder Research Cyber Security Program was necessitated by the Executive branch’s creation of the Controlled Unclassified Information (ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥I) program, which establishes policies and practices standardizing the way USG agencies handle unclassified information requiring protection.Ìý The new ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥I policies and procedures affect many federally-funded contracts and grants at ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder.ÌýÌý
The ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder Research Cyber Security Program will provide support and resources to assist faculty and staff in accomplishing research activities while remaining in compliance with ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥I policies and practices.ÌýThe program will include ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥I and research cyber security training, consulting services, and ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥I-compliant information technology (IT) services.ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý
The ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥I and research cyber security training and consulting services are actively being developed by RIO and the ITSO.ÌýInvestigating ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥I-compliant IT service options requires your assistance to determine current information technology utilization in research groups across campus.ÌýPlease make time on your calendars to assist them if contacted directly regarding the program.
Please address any questions you may have regarding this new program to the Research Cyber Security Program Manager, Scott Maize:Ìýscott.maize@colorado.edu.ÌýÌýÌý
