Protected Network

OIT has a specialized secure network, or “protected network,” which hosts virtual machines (VMs) and network storage that contain protected data. This data cannot be accessible to the general public and may either be sensitive or restricted. Sign in with your NetID and password to view the protected network diagram for the legacy Protected Network and PRDN. 

OIT is currently in the process of developing the next version of our Protected Network for Research.  Learn more about the capabilities and features of this new environment by visiting the service page on the OIT website.
