The matrix below is designed to provide guidance on where LETU employees can securely store information and files. Note that Students are included for clarity on tools typically used by students but this matrix is intended for consumption for LETU Faculty/Staff.

Note that any storage of FERPA, HIPAA or other restricted information is still subject to other guidance on those regulations - the matrix below just indicates which storage/cloud services are allowed to be possible hosts for that information.
