Checklist for a Data Management Plan
- DMP ChecklistTo make sure you cover/include all the essential components of a Data Management Plan, it's recommended to use this checklist.
DMP Online
- Data Management Planning OnlineDMPonline helps you to create, review, and share data management plans that meet institutional and funder requirements. It is provided by the Digital Curation Centre (DCC).
Data management Planning
-
Data Management Plans (DCC)Funding bodies increasingly require grant-holders to develop and implement Data Management and Sharing Plans (DMPs).
Plans typically state what data will be created and how, and outline the plans for sharing and preservation, noting what is appropriate given the nature of the data and any restrictions that may need to be applied.
This resource includes a checklist, guidance and examples
- Data Management Plans (Australian National Data Service)A Data Management Plan (DMP) typically outlines what research data will be created during the course of a research project and how it will be created, plans for sharing and preserving the data and any restrictions that may need to be applied.
Example Data Management Plans
- Digital Curation Centre Data Management Plans (Examples)Lots of guidance and examples are available to help with data plans.
- Data Management Plans & Toolkits (ANDS)These include examples of data management plans and checklists for anyone involved in applying for grants, managing data, managing research projects including, researchers and higher degree by research students.
- Horizon 2020 Data Management Plan Template (May 2021)The Horizon Europe Model Grant Agreement requires that a data management plan (‘DMP’) is established and regularly updated.
The use of this template is recommended for Horizon Europe beneficiaries. In completing the sections of the template the requirements for research data management of Horizon Europe as described in article 17 and analysed in the Annotated Grant
Agreement, article 17, must be addressed.

Data Encryption
- Data EncryptionEncryption is the process of encoding digital information in such a way that only authorised parties can view it.
Individual files can be encrypted, as can folders or entire disk volumes and USB storage devices. Encryption software uses an algorithm to encode information and a decryption key or password to decrypt the information.
Some types of encryption provide greater protection than others, the type and level of encryption used should correspond to the sensitivity of the data being protected.
