Cybersecurity

 

Cybersecurity is an expansive and complex area and its scope extends well beyond research.  For the purposes of research security, there are 14 requirements for safeguarding information systems similar to FAR 52.204-21. It is important to note that research taking place under government contracts may be subject to additional security controls.  We have established a secure research environment (RISE) for these types of contracts.  Please contact the Research Security Office if you have any questions or need this type of secure environment.

 

Cybersecurity is an integral part of protecting US federally funded research. Federal initiatives such as NSPM-33, the CHIPS & Science Act, and CMMC are working to address the need for increased cybersecurity. Additionally, Oklahoma State University has, and is continually, investing in cybersecurity efforts to protect your research. Our professionals have experience with protecting Federal Contract Information (FCI), Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), and Export Control EAR & ITAR.

Our professionals can assist you in securing your research by providing the following:

• Security consultations (both Proposals and Awards)
• Technology solutions
• Awareness and training
• Compliance support
