About the Resource Registry

As common as possible...

Cornell has over two thousand web applications in use across the Ithaca campus. The Cornell IT Resource Registry will inventory ownership, purpose, mission criticality, data sensitivity, location, and security controls for these applications. This will allow the university to respond nimbly and effectively to security issues, as well as comply with state and federal laws and cyberinsurance policies.

Who Can Use the Resource Registry?

In February 2026, CIT support staff adopted the Resource Registry. The project team evaluated the rollout of the Registry to this unit, confirmed that the unit's needs were met by this application, as well as addressed some of the concerns found during the project's discovery process.

...as different as necessary.

The Registry will gradually roll out university-wide, coordinated with the needs identified by Resilient Cornell Information Technology Work Group.
