As research continues to ge nerate and depend on vast volumes of data\, the boundaries between healthc are\, computation\, and innovation continue to blur. High-performance comp uting\, cloud environments\, and federated data platforms are transforming how research is conducted\, yet the frameworks that govern cybersecurity\ , privacy\, and data management often struggle to keep pace with this digi tal acceleration.
In this session\, Irfaan\, Senior Information Risk Analyst at the SickKids Research Institute\, introduces how cybersecurity and information risk management principles can strengthen trust\, integri ty\, and collaboration across the research lifecycle. Drawing on experienc e at the intersection of clinical research\, IT compliance\, and informati on risk\, he will outline how standards such as those from NIST and policy instruments like Canada’s Tri- Agency Research Data Management Policy i nfluence how institutions think about protecting data\, enabling collabora tion\, and supporting responsible research.
Attendees will learn tha t effective security in research is not only about firewalls and encryptio n\, but also about building a culture of responsible innovation that safeg uards data\, protects patients\, and sustains discovery across Ontario’s research ecosystem.
