Use the template for risk and vulnerability analysis
A couple of common risks are the dissemination of personal data to unauthorised parties and that important information is destroyed or lost and cannot be recovered. During the risk analysis, you can see whether the planned management of information in the project minimises or completely avoids common risks and whether there are risks that require additional risk management measures.
Does your department have a general information classification?
If your department has already conducted a general information classification of information security, cybersecurity and data protection within your research field, much of the work has already been done for you.
You can use the simplified information classification process in your research project based on the general information classification and by following the security measures the department found suitable and proportional in their risk assessment. This could be technical solutions and routines for protecting research data and minimise risks in your project.
Ask the head of your department if they have a "General information classification with security measures" for your research field.
