Overview

Published in association with the Society of American Archivists Trusting Records in the Cloud presents key findings of InterPARES Trust, an international research project that has investigated issues of trust in, and trustworthiness of records and data online, with respect to privacy, accessibility, portability, metadata and ownership.

Topics include: - risks and remedies to the contracts the public must enter into with service providers - implementing retention and disposition schedules in the cloud - understanding the role of metadata in cloud services for chain of custody - rethinking issues of appraisal, arrangement and description - preservation as a series of services implementable by a variety of preservation actors - information governance, risk management, and authentication practices and technologies.
