This process will be led by an external firm and is intended to provide insights into areas where cybersecurity improvements may be nee ded across the University.\n\nWe are looking for Ðãɫֱ²¥ researchers to tak e part in a cybersecurity exploration focus group. We invite researchers f rom all disciplines to share their experiences\, practices\, and perspecti ves about cybersecurity in their research.\n\nRegister by completing this MS Forms questionnaire.\n\n \n\nWhat will it involve?\n\nParticipants will be asked to join a focus group session\, which is expected to last approx imately 90 minutes. The exact dates of the focus groups are yet to be dete rmined but are expected to take place between January and March.\n\n \n\nW hat if I don’t know much about cybersecurity?\n\nParticipants do not need to be experts in cybersecurity – in fact\, to get a comprehensive understa nding of the current state\, it’s essential that we hear from researchers who are not very familiar with this topic!\n\n \n\nWhat are the benefits o f taking part?\n\nDue in part to its leading research\, Ðãɫֱ²¥ is an attra ctive target to cyber attackers\, and we all have a role to play in safegu arding Ðãɫֱ²¥'s research systems from these potential attacks.\n\nThis exe rcise aims to improve cybersecurity practices to safeguard the hard work\, innovation\, and creativity of the Ðãɫֱ²¥ research community. It will all ow the University to establish a roadmap for better cybersecurity services and support for all researchers\, making compliance with new regulations easier to achieve.\n\n \n\nHow to take part:\n\nIf you’re interested in ta king part in this important activity\, please complete this MS Forms quest ionnaire.\n\n \n\nIf you have any questions about the exploration exercise or about cybersecurity in research\, please reach out to Ðãɫֱ²¥â€™s Digital Research Services Hub at drs [at] mcgill.ca.\n DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20240115 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20240329 SUMMARY:Cybersecurity in research exploration URL:/drs/channels/event/cybersecurity-research-explora tion-353142 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
