International research is vulnerable to misuse by organisations, institutions and individuals who operate on behalf of nations that seek to undermine the prevailing system of international research collaboration. Trusted Research seeks to protect that system from being undermined by those who might seek to abuse the principles of open science and academic freedom for their own gain.

Trusted Research is a joint National Protective Security Authority NPSA and National Cyber Security Centre NCSC campaign, developed with academic institutions and endorsed by key bodies within the sector. It helps the UK’s world-leading academic sector continue to get the most out of international scientific collaboration whilst protecting intellectual property, sensitive research and personal information from potential theft, misuse, or exploitation. It is run collaboratively with the sector and supports self-regulation and sector identification and ownership of risk.
