Your research data are valuable assets that you have probably invested considerable time, effort and money in creating. Protecting your data from loss is therefore an important aspect of data management during your project.
To protect your data you need to consider how they are stored, backed-up and secured whilst you are still working on them.
When considering your data storage strategy, you should consider the following:
The IT One Stop Shop (intranet link – log in to access) is the place to get started for further information about file storage. This includes links to IT policies (intranet link – log in to access) and information about file back-up (intranet link – log in to access).
Off-campus IT support (intranet link – log in to access) reminds you to think about how secure your data storage / access is when off campus.
