With more [[Laboratory|laboratories]] than ever using networked hardware and software tools to manage data, improve [[workflow]]s, and provide insights, it seemed time to address the importance of laboratories focusing on cybersecurity. We say "laboratories," but to be fair, our completed ''[[LII:Comprehensive Guide to Developing and Implementing a Cybersecurity Plan|Comprehensive Guide to Developing and Implementing a Cybersecurity Plan]]'' and its companion piece, ''[[:File:An Example Cybersecurity Plan - Shawn Douglas - v1.0.pdf|An Example Cybersecurity Plan]]'', will undoubtedly be useful to practically any business wanting to take a start at or improve existing cybersecurity planning. The guide provides background to cybersecurity planning, proposes a 10-step process for creating a plan, and offers up a simplified version of security controls from NIST Special Publication 800-53, Rev. 4, tied into our existing [[Book:LIMSpec 2019 R1|LIMSpec]] document. The example plan puts that 10-step process to work in the fictional environmental lab ABC123 Co. We hope you find both documents useful. May your cybersecurity efforts be fruitful!

'''The Most Popular Pages section''' has been removed from the front page of LIMSwiki today. For much of its existence, it stood as a fun means to see which pages were receiving the most viewer traffic, while also providing insights into which pages deserved a touch more editing attention. However, in recent years, it has been coopted by others to artificially inflate page views of specific vendor pages, to give those vendors a higher and unjustified ranking. This largely destroyed the original fun and intent of the tool, leaving it largely meaningless. In retrospect, a tool that included the word "popular" was inevitably going to be turned into a popularity contest, which is partially my fault. Alas ...

LIMSwiki has yet another guide for you, this time involving the ISO/IEC 17025 standard. The first edition of the LIMS Selection Guide for ISO/IEC 17025 Laboratories is now live for your perusal. This guide looks at the ISO/IEC 17025-certified laboratory, what roles it plays in society, the efforts it must go to remain compliant, and the benefits is discovers by doing so. It also examines the unique laboratory informatics system requirements for these labs, turning to LIMSpec for clues as to what those systems need to do to help such labs better comply to the standard. Additional resources and request for information guidance is also provided. Enjoy! Shawn Douglas (talk) 16:30, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Food Safety 1.svg

First, happy 2023 to you all! With a new year comes a new guide for LIMSwiki, keying in on some of that food and beverage content described in December 2022. Just released is the LIMS Selection Guide for Food Safety and Quality. Similar in vein to the Laboratory Informatics Buyer's Guide for Medical Diagnostics and Research released this time last year, this new guide recognizes the important role the food and beverage laboratory plays in our society towards food and beverage safety and quality, as well as the increasing need for systems like the laboratory information management system (LIMS) to enhance the lab's safety and quality efforts. The guide examines what these labs do, what standards and regulations affect them, and the traits the lab's LIMS should have to best improve the lab's activities. It also provides helpful information about food and beverage LIMS acquisition, including a LIMS requirements specification and information on how to best put it to use. Hope you find it useful.
