Ivy and Rio Secure Environment
The UVA secure environment consits of Ivy virtual machines (Linux and Windows) and Rio HPC. Researchers can use Ivy and Rio to process and store sensitive data with the confidence that the environment is secure and meets HIPAA, FERPA, CUI (Rio excluded) or ITAR requirements. To access the High security Rio HPC, researchers need to request an Ivy Linux VM which serves as a login node.

VM. Licensed as open source under the GPL, it is most often used
to develop mission critical software, and has excellent integration
