A Research Cyber Security, Threat and Risk Assessment (R-CSTRA) aims to:

• Identify potential security risks, threats and gaps related to your research project.
• Recommend services and methods to enhance the security of your research project.
• Evaluate your project’s alignment with the U of T’s Information Security Control Standard and other relevant requirements.

Through an R-CSTRA, researchers will gain a clearer understanding of their project’s security posture and the cyber threats and risks that could impact their intellectual property. Assessments are conducted in collaboration with the research team and relevant technical and security staff to ensure a comprehensive and tailored approach.
