A Security Planning Assessment (SPA) is a process to ensure the security of Yale IT Systems.

A SPA is not required for low-risk systems hosted by a vendor/third party.  You can request a Security Planning Assessment by visiting the SPA webpage.

A SPA will highlight areas that put Yale Data or IT Systems at risk.

SPAs should be revisited according to the following schedule:

  • Every two years for High Risk systems
  • Every three years for Moderate Risk systems
  • Every four years for Low Risk systems
