A data-visiting infrastructure for providing access to preserved databases that cannot be shared or made publicly accessible

Abstract

Databases preserved in archives contain highly valuable information that frequently cannot be made freely accessible for analyses via standard data portals, be it due to legal, commercial or ethical issues. We present OSSDIP, the reference implementation of a high-security data visiting infrastructure initially conceived as a safe-compute environment for medical data. It provides highly controlled and monitored data visiting services while ensuring to the largest degree possible that data cannot be extracted from the infrastructure. This may offer archives a viable alternative for providing restricted access to sensitive data in a more flexible manner.
