Data security is a key concern in deciding to move to cloud-based genomic storage and analysis. Illumina BaseSpace Sequence Hub is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and provides a combination of Amazon’s comprehensive and well-tested approach to platform security, overlaid with Illumina’s own security testing and procedures. These procedures include reviews and tests by independent security professionals. This cloud genomics solution meets or exceeds the security provided by many institutional IT infrastructures.
