Trusted data repositories and the CoreTrustSeal - NIFs experience
Channel: Australian Research Data Commons - ARDC
Date: 19/03/2018

Recorded 13 March 2018

In November 2016, The ICSU World Data System (WDS) and the Data Seal of Approval (DSA) Board released  the first version of their unified Core Trustworthy Data Repository Requirements. The unified catalogue of requirements was developed through a DSA–WDS partnership Working Group within the Research Data Alliance (RDA).

During 2017, ANDS initiated the “Trusted Data Repository” program which funded three Australian research organisations to assess their data infrastructure, policies and procedures against the Requirements with the aim of achieving certification under what has been renamed the CoreTrustSeal.  The aim of the projects was to understand what achieving certification means for different institutions and disciplines.

During this subset of the webinar, hear the National Imaging Facility share their outcomes and learnings from these projects. Learn more about the CoreTrustSeal and hear from those with first hand experience about the steps involved to achieve certification and recognition as a Trustworthy Data Repository.
