Different types of devices on the UiB network
Researchers need to connect various research equipment to the network and be able to store the data that is generated. The IT division has several products and services to accomodate this.
Main content
Which service is suitable depends on the type of equipment, the amount of data, and the security requirements.
You should consider how long you need to store the data, how often you will use it, how sensitive the information is, and whether you will share the data with others. In the case of LittNett, you must ensure that the equipment has the correct software and updates, and that you follow the guidelines for information security.
If you are unsure about which product or service best suits your needs, you can contact us at https://hjelp.uib.no. We will guide you through the process and answer any questions you may have.
