Uncover hidden risks. Protect funding. Ensure compliance.
Turn fragmented research security checks into a consistent, audit-ready workflow for identifying, reviewing, and documenting potential risk across researchers, collaborations, and organizations.
For Academic Institutions
Protect institutional funding, reputation, and trusted research. Dimensions Research Security helps universities and research institutions replace manual checks and disconnected records with a scalable workflow for disclosure verification, collaboration review, and documented due diligence.
- Verify researcher disclosures faster using enriched profiles that cross-reference global affiliation, funding, publication, patent, grant, and clinical trial data
- Identify concerning affiliations, partnerships, and funding links using configurable review criteria
- Create, save and deploy one or more review configurations depending on need
- Manage reviews from initial identification through to completion with a built-in review queue and status tracking
- Capture time-stamped notes, assign tags, and generate audit-ready reports with the context stakeholders need
- Scale compliance checks using the Dimensions Research Security API
For Government, Funders & National Security
Ensure critical research is protected. Centralize reviewing, analysis, and reporting into a single workflow so your team can vet researchers, monitor portfolios, and maintain compliance with evolving national security mandates.
- Review funding applicants and collaborators against configurable criteria to catch undisclosed or restricted affiliations
- Move from one-time checks to ongoing reviewing with a review pipeline that tracks researchers from identification through completion
- Maintain defensible audit trails with reports that include review context, notes, and compliance evidence
- Scale high-volume time-sensitive reviews using the Dimensions Research Security API
Research security is under increasing scrutiny. From undisclosed affiliations to complex foreign funding ties, universities, funders, and government agencies face growing pressure to uncover hidden risks, comply with evolving mandates, and protect funding, reputation, and national interests.
Dimensions Research Security is evolving from a static dashboard into a dynamic workflow and reporting solution built for research security due diligence. Teams can now save complex filter sets as review configurations, move researchers into a dedicated review queue, and save completed reviews for future reference or audits.
The updated researcher reports support active review workflows, allowing users to assign tags, add notes, and document findings in one place. Contextual PDF exports automatically include the review configuration, in addition to notes and tags, so stakeholders receive the full context behind each review.

Research security, from first flag to final report
Repeatable review configurations
Save targeted review configurations, apply them across researchers or organizations, and move results into a managed review queue. Dimensions Research Security helps teams go beyond static charts and move reviews to a clear, repeatable workflow.
Review researchers with greater speed and clarity
Investigate key risk indicators, such as affiliations with restricted entities, without jumping between disconnected tools. Side panel previews provide quick access to underlying records and highlight where relevant risk signals appear.
Document decisions as you work
Assign tags, add notes, and track review status directly within researcher reports. Each review creates a clear record of the work completed and the reasoning behind it.
Generate audit-ready reports
Export reports that include the risk context stakeholders need, including applied review configurations, assigned tags, and user-added notes. Reports are easier to understand, easier to share, and better suited to formal due diligence.
Built for scale
Analyze entire departments, researcher networks, or institutions with exhaustive data coverage and intuitive dashboards. The Dimensions Research Security API offers access to the data you need, the way you need it for your institution’s systems.
Built for academic, government, and funding workflows
Dimensions Research Security supports the practical needs of research offices, compliance teams, funders, and government agencies responsible for assessing risk across researchers, departments, grants, proposals, and collaborations.
Built for integration
The Dimensions Research Security API delivers structured data directly into internal systems, helping organizations support high-volume reviews, case management, and research administration workflows.
