9. Extra protections needed Student data (FERPA) SSNs Credit card data HIPAA (ePHI) data DFARS

10. Special issues for research  Research data may go through all classifications during the cycle of research. While a study is in progress, the data may be classified as sensitive, but after the study is closed and the data shared according to NIH or NSF guidelines, it may be public.  Research budgets are always sensitive, but federally funded research proposal are often public (as they may be requested from the funding agency with a FOIA request).

11. Who’s who? Data steward Determines sensitivity of data, who can access and how it should be protected FERPA data -> Registrar Research project -> PI Data manager Typically an IT administrator responsible for securing data according to the data steward's directives Should have good working knowledge of how to securely manage systems and applications Data users Individuals who have been approved by the data steward to access the data Responsible for their access to the data, including account security
