[R] security using R at work

[Laurence Clark]

Hello all,

I want to download R and use it for work purposes. I hope to use it to analyse very sensitive data from our clients.

My question is:

If I install R on my work network computer, will the data ever leave our network? I need to know if the data goes anywhere other than our network, because this could compromise it's security. Is there is any chance the data could go to a server owned by 'R' or anything else that's not immediately obvious, but constitutes the data leaving our network?

Thank you

Laurence
