What is a Protected Cloud Research Platform?
- A sovereign cloud platform, purpose-built to meet the secure research needs of academic institutions, business, and government offered as-a-service.
- Accredited with the Australian Government as a PROTECTED level service.

Who should utilise the platform?
- Researchers conducting sensitive research classified at PROTECTED or below, or sensitive research that requires enhanced protections for sensitive private information or Intellectual Property.
- Cyber leaders needing to support the development of research in a secure environment.
- Business leaders looking to grow research revenue with confidence and certainty that technology, financial, and security risks are being managed.
Why is a Protected Cloud Research Platform important?
- Research security: As the cyber threat environment continues to evolve, it has never been more important to secure the research that underpins Australia’s economic prosperity and national security.
- Accelerating procurement: Procuring, standing-up and sustaining ICT infrastructure for PROTECTED research environment takes time, money and resources – slowing down research outcomes. This is an off-the-shelf secure environment which is ready when you are.
The platform is expected to be accredited and available in February 2024
