The there are many laws, regulations, policies, standards and guidelines that apply to many types of the information we at Boston University use every day. It is a complex topic and the BU Information Security Department is here to help. The Information Security Department is here to help you understand those requirements and to assist you in designing your systems and processes in such a way as to be in compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, best practices and with the policies of Boston University.
