Data security is crucial to all academic, clinical, and business operations at Yale. All existing and new business and data processes should include a data security review to be sure Yale data is safe from loss and secured against unauthorized access.
Protect your data

Good data security is about more than confidentiality, it’s about protecting our academic and business data against loss due to accident or technical problems. Yale has created a classification system that divides Yale Data into three types, depending on their importance, sensitivity, and potential for misuse.
