The protection of your data and the security of our infrastructure are of paramount importance when utilising, designing and operating the National Integrated Cyber Infrastructure System (NICIS). This infrastructure includes the Centre for High Performance Computing (CHPC), the South African National Research Network (SANReN) and the Data Intensive Research Initiative of South Africa (DIRISA).

The purpose of this session is to engage with you, our users and beneficiaries, in order to uncover your needs/wants/expectations with respect to the security of NICIS and the confidentiality, integrity and availability of your data.

Key speakers will set the stage for us to facilitate an impactful discussion unpacking your requirements and exploring ideas towards addressing them.
