Cybersecurity

We have a responsibility to protect confidential and

proprietary information in our care, which includes our
data as well as confidential information and intellectual
property that belongs to us and others. We invest in
advanced and sophisticated security measures to ensure
these critical resources are protected. Our strategy is to
employ an array of data security technologies, processes
and methods across our infrastructure so that our
employees, customers, partners and other stakeholders
have the utmost confidence in the safety of our systems.

The top threats to our industry are phishing and

network intrusion, and we are continually looking for
ways to increase and uphold data security in response.
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic heightened the risk
of cyber and ransomware attacks on institutions with
access to information on vaccines and therapeutics in
development and testing, and we increased our efforts
to combat potential new threats.
