Cyber and Information Security

The mission of the Cyber and Information Security group is to protect information on ORNL automated information systems commensurate with risk of loss and harm while protecting access to and from automated information systems on the Oak Ridge Network. Our group manages the Lab's cyber security program and works with DOE, ORNL management, and a network of Division Computer Security Officers (DCSOs) to implement a risk-based program that accommodates "open research" data, proprietary CRADA data, and everything in between.

Information Security

The process for clearance and release ensures that technical content is sound, the government's patent interests are considered, information released to the public is not classified or otherwise controlled, and DOE regulations are met--including the regulation that we send DOE's Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI) copies of our technical reports and full conference papers (and not abstracts or viewgraphs). These four steps are now carried out by the originating division, the ORNL Patent Counsel, and Authorized Derivative Classifier and the Classification Officer if work is in a non-DUSA (Designated Unclassified Subject Area), and the ORNL Technical Information Office.

Other Information

CIAC: Computer Incident Advisory Capability (CIAC) for the Department of Energy, provides computer security technical assistance and information to DOE sites.
