A new standard for research: How UC Riverside is securing the path to federal grants with Google Public Sector

The University of California, Riverside (UCR) partnered with Google Public Sector to use Stellar Engine, a framework for secure computing environments, to reduce the 'compliance tax' for researchers. This allows them to focus on innovation rather than security and compliance. The solution is a secure enclave for data, built on Google Cloud, which automates and enforces security postures. This enables UCR to support complex research projects with stringent security requirements. The result is a hardened environment for sensitive data, reducing the burden on researchers and increasing the chances of securing federal grants.
