Overview
The campus IT governance process is an integrated approach to developing and implementing campuswide technological strategy, policy, and solutions that advance the University’s mission of teaching, research, and public service.
The IT governance process relies on a robust collective of established committees with domain expertise to inform IT strategy and policy and bring forth well-formed, thoughtful proposals for review and approval.

Cyber-Risk & Data Privacy Governance Committee
The Cyber Risk and Data Privacy Governance Committee (CRDPGC) provides oversight of cyber-risk management, data privacy and protection, and cyber-risk incident response related to UCLA’s data information systems. The committee’s scope includes the protection, storage, use, and management of electronic data assets used for academic, research, or administrative purposes, whether stored or transmitted in electronic form and may consist of data, systems, networks, or documents created from electronic data. The Cyber Risk and Data Privacy Governance Committee:
- Reviews and recommends changes to cybersecurity and data privacy policies, standards, and guidelines
- Reviews and endorses cyber-risk mitigation and response plans
- Reviews and endorses information security standards consistent with acceptable risk tolerances
Data Governance Committee
The Data Governance Committee focuses on data, analytics, and activities related to campuswide projects and initiatives involving the use of institutional data. [Research data is not included in the scope of the Data Governance Committee.] In alignment with the University’s mission and campus IT strategy, as established by the Executive IT Governance Board, the Data Governance Committee employs:
- Conceptual data governance to enable the emergence and ongoing cultivation of a single, shared definition of our data across the institution.
- Logical data governance to mature processes that create data across the institution so that they generate accurate, timely, and meaningful data.
- Physical data governance to continue development of the non-functional processes that capture, store, classify, and enable the retrieval and use of institutional data in a consistent and secure manner.
Research IDRE Board (Institute for Digital Research & Education)
The Research IDRE Board focuses on research data and advanced research technology resource needs across campus. The Research IDRE Board:
- Provides vision, direction, oversight, recommendations, and strategic planning for advanced digitally-enabled research
- Advocates for resources, infrastructure, technologist expertise, and related services necessary for innovative, digitally enabled research
