Collaboratory has completed a HECVAT-Lite assessment which is available upon request. The Higher Education Cloud Vendor Assessment Tool – Lite (HECVAT – Lite) attempts to generalize higher education information security and data protection questions and issues for consistency and ease of use. It is intended to provide a starting point for the assessment of third-party provided cloud services and resources. Some institutions may have specific issues that must be addressed in addition to the general questions provided in this assessment. The HECVAT was created by the Higher Education Information Security Council Shared Assessments Working Group.
