Standard Technology enhanced data governance controls for neurotechnology research, with an emphasis on consent management and auditing. The update supports fine‑grained tracking of permissions and conditions, configurable by study and participant group. Audit trails record data access and transformations so teams can verify appropriate use and investigate anomalies. De‑identification and minimization patterns help reduce exposure of sensitive information, and secure enclaves are available for analyses that require additional safeguards. The intent is to make ethical and legal obligations practical to meet: researchers can see exactly what is permitted, under what conditions, and what steps were taken. Templates and checklists guide protocol design, and documentation clarifies the difference between exploratory and confirmatory analyses to set expectations for data use. These changes are part of a broader program to keep sensitive research safe, reproducible, and respectful of participants, while enabling legitimate scientific progress. Additional modules in development will simplify data‑use agreements and help teams generate clear, participant‑friendly disclosures.
