A decade ago the term “research security” referred mainly to the
protection of classified information. But now, along with “cybersecurity”
and “data security,” the phrase “research security” has been broadened
to include work that is deemed of national interest despite NOT being
classified, such as Quantum Information Science, and has become part of the
national zeitgeist. In early January, all federal funding agencies were
directed by the White House in a national security Presidential memo (NSPM-
33) to establish new research security guidelines “to strengthen
protections of United States Government-supported Research and Development (
R&D) against foreign government interference and exploitation” [1]. This
was established in the waning days of the Trump administration, but the
concerns expressed are bipartisan and the order is still in force. The focus
is especially on China. The FBI has made some high-profile arrests, but
unlike famous cases of past decades which revolved around access to
classified information at the weapons labs, many of those now accused are
accomplished scientists engaged in university research in fundamental
science, with close collaborations in China. Responding to pressure from
funding agencies and the FBI, most research universities are also
instituting new procedures to protect their research, even if it is
unclassified, fundamental, and intended for open publication.
Why? What has changed? Is the federal government responding to the “
greatest threat to democracy and freedom world-wide since World War II” (as
described by the Director of National Intelligence) [2], or is this a
xenophobic over-reaction (as suggested by some members of Congress), a new
incarnation of McCarthyism, now focused on China? [3]. Certainly scientists
of Chinese descent have been disproportionately targeted [4]. But in
addition, it is important to understand that these latest fears about
research security have a deeper connection to the changing landscape of
international cooperation and competition in research. | b***y
