How will caBIG® ensure that data shared across centers will be secure and that the privacy of human subjects will be upheld?
Security and privacy-related issues were at the core of the caBIG® planning process. caBIG® has formed the Data Sharing and Intellectual Capital Strategic Level Workspace to address these issues as part of its charter. The Architecture Workspace is addressing the technical aspects of these important issues. A White Paper detailing security practices is available at https://caBIG.nci.nih.gov/workspaces/Architecture/caBIG_Security_Technology_Evaluation_White_Paper_20060123.pdf.
