About the Agency
BLS offers offsite remote access to restricted data through a Virtual Data Enclave (VDE). Users access data files at a designated location at their institution using a virtual desktop on their own computer. The VDE must be accessed from a single non-private static IP address that is associated with the institution and restricted to an approved location. If the institution is unable to provide a location-specific IP address, a static IP address is still required, and the VDE must be accessed from a non-portable desktop computer located in an approved location. NLSY State, County, and MSA Geocode data sets and the CFOI-Masked data set require a workspace where steps can be taken to prevent unauthorized individuals from seeing or accessing the data. The remaining highly restricted data sets require a location with a locked room that is only accessible to designated agents.
