I am delighted to have all of these options, thanks! I really like the Globus 
option but knowing about the others will be very helpful!

I just want to make sure I am understanding the question.  when you say file 
sharing/transfer do you mean):

1.) File transmission software like cyberduck or (as Mike Kastellec just 
suggested something Like Globus -- which looks pretty awesome!)
2.) Or an electronic lab notebook for shared experimentation and research like

3.) Or the storage infrastructure  cyberduck/Globus/FileZilla would connect to?
        a.)Backblaze, Onedrive, university hosted SFTP site, etc....

(it seems like you mean 1, but I want to be sure and I already wrote out the 
rest of the email so there you go :)


If you are looking for file sharing/transmission software (1)

Cyberduck is great -- we use it to connect to our backblaze b2 accounts and 
manage a decent amount of digital collections data and has a good number of 
integrations that can help to connect to a large number of cloud providers and 
as well

Filezilla and WinSCP are also good and have similar feature sets to Cyberduck.


If you are looking for a an ELN(2) Harvard put together a good resource 
comparing a number of them here:  
https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdatamanagement.hms.harvard.edu%2Felectronic-lab-notebooks&amp;data=01%7C01%7Celizabeth.leonard%40SHU.EDU%7Cf5d9d1ced7314d695d6908d799e48794%7C51f07c2253b744dfb97ca13261d71075%7C1&amp;sdata=kSh03EkTM6o7QTq%2Fy5YZA7esAM5HsIdtatnNqHNARJU%3D&amp;reserved=0

If you mean file storage infrastructure (3)

Your organization probably has pretty strict rules about where your researchers 
can place/share any non-public data (HIPPA, FERPA, PII, etc..) and would have 
guidelines for others types of data --  I know ours does 
(https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fits.wsu.edu%2Fdocuments%2F2018%2F06%2Fwsu-cloud-acceptable-use-matrix.pdf%2F&amp;data=01%7C01%7Celizabeth.leonard%40SHU.EDU%7Cf5d9d1ced7314d695d6908d799e48794%7C51f07c2253b744dfb97ca13261d71075%7C1&amp;sdata=Q33W3zggaAHKJG9AkhhTV4H3OJ3NEWYMcRin2iUnYEU%3D&amp;reserved=0
 ).  I would look to your central IT department to see if they have any 
agreements for cloud providers for the specific type of data you are thinking 
might be included.  In the past, at least from my most recent experience,  most 
cloud providers need a separate agreement above the most basic OneDrive, 
box.com agreement and comes at a higher price.

Possibly both- this is a bit of a thought experiment. I'd like to know what's 
out there to be able to help learn enough to advise and support our faculty.

Could you clarify the level of security you're dealing with?  Is this where you 
need HIPAA compliance? PHI? Sensitive personal information?

Hi all:

Let say your faculty have research files that they want to securely share with 
researchers at another academic institutions (say, on another continent).

What are secure ways that they can do this? An example I've heard of is 
Cyberduck- anything else?

We are hoping for reasonably priced solutions (I know... secure, reasonably 
priced, and effective... can't have all of them- but hoping anyway).

Thanks!
