Open Berkeley websites are hosted on Pantheon, and sites on Pantheon cannot include protected (a.k.a. sensitive) data. A breakdown of the Data Classification Levels can be found on the Security website(link is external)
The Open Berkeley platform’s secure authentication system is approved for “Protection Level P2” data. All content on Open Berkeley websites (and all other sites hosted on Pantheon), whether available to anonymous visitors or only logged-in visitors, may only include data classified as "Protection Level P1(link is external)."
Options for Protected Data
- If you have data that falls into the "Protection Level P2" or "Protection Level P3" category(link is external) (formerly PL1), you may still use Open Berkeley, and host the data on bDrive(link is external) instead. The data can be uploaded bDrive, and then you can restrict access to the document(s) accordingly, and then link to the document(s) from your Open Berkeley site.
- If you have data that falls into the "Protection Level P4" category(link is external) (formerly PL2 and PL3), please consult with Security Policy (security-policy@berkeley.edu(link sends e-mail)) on possible options for hosting P4 data.
