Research Security
In 2021, the National Security Presidential Memorandum 33 (NSPM-33) laid out the U.S. Government-Support Research and Development National Security Policy. NSPM-33, subsequent implementation guidance and additional congressional legislation, including the 2022 CHIPS and Science Act and the National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2021 (FY2021 NDAA), and various federal agency regulations have all created additional rules related to the protection of federally funded research. NC State’s Research Security Program is intended to help NC State researchers navigate these new research security rules.
Research Security is the necessary safeguarding of the research enterprise against the misappropriation of research and development to the detriment of national or economic security, related to violations of research integrity, and foreign government interference. (NSPM-33)
