To help prevent possible risks, some countries have enacted laws and regulations requiring provable authenticity, reliability, integrity and accessibility as a precondition for legal effect and enforceability of digital records. These regulations explain the requirements for adopting secured digital records and for judging their evidential admissibility. However, these requirements only typically describe the mandatory characteristics that retained digital records need to have, regardless of an organization’s records management capability. While many organizations have implemented a records system for themselves, implementation of digital records exchange across organizations often faces a number of challenges. Individuals are also limited in their ability to comply with legal requirements for the admissibility of their digital records. This limitation might cause social problems, delay operational processes, reduce efficiency and prevent electronic exchange.
Therefore, as the exchange of secure records becomes more significant for individual and/or organizational collaboration, the social demand for a trustworthy electronic transaction environment has emerged as one of the major issues in digital environments today. Protecting information in digital records is beginning to be regarded as an indispensable precondition for operational efficiency and economic benefit in organizations across all sectors and industries.
One way of resolving this situation is to use a TTPR. A third party is an independent individual or organization that is separate from the direct interests of mutual parties, and that acts as an intermediary when two parties are exchanging digital information in a secure manner. Society and governments shall be in a position to trust the third party. To prevent any complications that can arise during electronic transactions, a TTPR operates systems and facilities and follows well-defined procedures according to the principles and guidelines for managing digital records in a secure manner.
During these processes, the TTPR ensures the authenticity, reliability, integrity and usability of digital records, for the period of the contracted service. In addition, the TTPR shall provide an official source of digital records that shall be admissible as evidence from a third party in the event of a dispute between parties regarding their records.BS ISO 17068 pdf free download.
