Perform data ingress#

This task is the responsibility of Trusted Research Environments Service Area (TRESA).

Important

  • You must be able to receive a secure email. We recommend the Egress secure email service, which is free to setup for sending and receiving secure emails.

  • You must know the public IP address(es) that are used by the Project Team’s chosen DPR if they will be uploading the data. This can be obtained from the signed copy of the Turing TRE Data Ingress Process form in the data ingress folder on sharepoint.

  • If the DPR has not yet provided a public IP, email them to request this. If they are unsure, ask them to Google “What’s my IP”

Several methods of bringing data into the TRE are possible. Each of these involves copying the data to a secure Azure storage account.

We strongly recommend using the Azure Storage Explorer method wherever possible, but you should use the method designated by the signed TRE Data Ingress Process form.

Whichever method you use, you’ll need to coordinate with the DPR. If the DPR encounters any issues, you should help them troubleshoot.
