Our Approach

The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) SECURE Center focuses on creating collaborative systems designed to enhance the security and integrity of the U.S. research enterprise. The co-creation approach brings members of the community to the design and development “table,” driving the creation of tools and strategies to address their self-identified security and integrity challenges.

This approach will culminate in a first-of-its-kind SECURE Shared Virtual Environment (SVE) where researchers, compliance officials, and organizational leaders from across the country can come together in a safe, protected, supportive environment to learn from each other about how to successfully identify and address research security challenges.
