Generative AI platforms are strictly not approved for long-term storage, official records management, or institutional data retention; all records requiring retention must be stored in approved Caltech systems.
IMSS guidance prohibits restricted or confidential Caltech information in consumer AI tools. The LLM Standards permit a specific IMSS exception with compensating controls; catalogue access alone does not establish sensitive-data approval.
AI agents operating in Caltech environments must be restricted to approved tools with explicit scopes and least-privilege credentials, and production tools must not allow arbitrary code execution without sandboxing.
For Caltech-data workloads, primary LLM inference must use Amazon Bedrock or other IMSS-approved platforms with no provider training on Caltech prompts/data, and custom training/fine-tuning must be performed on Amazon SageMaker or IMSS-approved secured environments.
Public, consumer, or unsanctioned GenAI tools are prohibited for Restricted or Confidential Caltech data unless IMSS issues a specific exception with compensating controls.
Violations may result in access revocation, removal of workloads and disciplinary actions per Caltech IMSS. Persistent violations are escalated to the CIO, CISO, OGC and appropriate governance bodies.
All AI traffic with Caltech data must use private networking (for example VPC Endpoints/PrivateLink or Direct Connect), with encryption in transit and at rest (TLS 1.2+; KMS CMKs). The examples are not an exclusive network list. Exceptions require Research Compliance Officer, CIO and CISO (or delegate) approval, compensating controls and an agreed sunset date.
LLM usage involving human subjects or protected research data must receive prior Institutional Review Board (IRB) and IMSS data-use review.
