The NSF SECURE Center was established in 2024 with a 5-year $50 million cooperative agreement award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and is led by the University of Washington. The National Center provides support, guidance, tools, resources, and integration functions for five Regional Centers. These Regional Centers engage and empower the research community to create, develop, implement, maintain, and share tools to safeguard research and discoveries. Together, we define the problems, design the solutions, and iteratively work together to use these resources to make security-informed decisions and safeguard U.S. research.

Six institutions of higher education lead five SECURE Regional Centers throughout the U.S.

Midwest Regional Center–University of Missouri
Northeast Regional Center–Northeastern University
Southeast Regional Center–Emory University
Southwest Regional Center–Colorado State University and Texas A&M University
West Regional Center–University of Washington
