Researchers are encouraged to span disciplines and collaborate with other researchers outside their institutions or countries, but it can be difficult to share sensitive research data between members of a research team while also complying with privacy and data security requirements. Join this session to hear about important legal and ethical considerations when handling sensitive data, including personally identifiable data. We'll explore best practices for sharing sensitive research data, including encrypted sharing or transfer methods. Presenters will demonstrate how you and your collaborators can use the NZ/Aotearoa-based FileSender to share encrypted files securely, and we'll provide you with some recommended practices to optimise your data transfers.
