Cybersecurity Certification for Research (CCR) Project Home

The objectives of this project include tackling the diverse UCSD IT environments and implementing internal self-certification. Define and publish internally a baseline standard based around CMMC L1 aka “Cybersecurity Baseline” to ensure and encourage common security controls (e.g., anti-malware software, regular patching) and record-keeping are deployed. To provide visibility for early detection of attacks and compromises which is critical for response and remediation. To educate IT staff on simple security measures and that basic record keeping is important.

Establish security best practices for researchers and their systems to ensure UCSD protects our information and the assets of our research partners.  In order to accomplish this, we will 1) provide content explaining UC San Diego technology security best practices, 2) document how to implement relevant tools, 3) facilitate review sessions for higher risk research environments and 4) provide security and technical guidance to teams that desire it.
