Karen:

Thanks! Here is what I have so far. I¹m going to do some more work on it,
pass it by a couple of people and then send it back to the list. Let me know
if you have any feedback or think it is useful.

Thanks,
Craig

Craig,
Here's an "Interim" policy from UC Berkeley, specifically about "human
subjects" data:
"Security of Research Subjects' Personally Identifiable Data Held by
Researchers"

    http://cphs.berkeley.edu/content/datasecurity.htm

It includes some very good "general" protective measures for any type
of data that should be stringently protected.

Does anyone have a policy in place that is geared to the protection of
 research data? UT Austin is in the process of finalizing such a
policy,
 and examples from others would be helpful.

 This policy will be in addition to existing network security and
 acceptable use policies, and is driven in part by a system-wide
mandate
 to establish policies specific to protecting research data.
