You can use Globus data management services to meet these new NIH security best practices for controlled-access data at your institution. Globus high assurance services comply with NIST SP 800-171 and NIST SP 800-53 Moderate baseline required by the updated NIH policy. Researchers can use Globus for compliant data movement, whether the genomic data is stored on-premises or cloud hosted. Data repositories can leverage the Globus platform to offer their users a secure, and easy to use data access interface. Researchers and repositories alike can use Globus for compliant data sharing capabilities, which include management of folder level permissions via federated identities and groups, without the need to move data to a file sharing service or create and manage temporary user accounts. The document provides an overview of deploying and using Globus to meet these data security requirements at your institution.
