Using web/software in the cloud

Griffith University has a process that can help you

Have you seen an online application or service that can help your teaching, research, project or daily work? Perhaps you have a colleague at another institution that has recommended a great tool they have access to online?

Before you start using an online application or service, we need to ensure that it is safe and secure and won't put Griffith at risk. Online applications sit outside of Griffith University's control, and don't have the same guarantee of accountability that applies to internally hosted applications

Any online application or service must follow a review process. This process exists to ensure the service doesn't get "stopped at the gate" by security, legal or other concerns just before you start using it (or, even worse when it's in use).
