With much business now relying heavily on electronic documents, a new ISO technical report on electronic storage has a huge potential for use in situations where the trustworthiness of electronic information may need to be demonstrated, such as in contract negotiations and in a regulatory and legal context. Organisations, whether large or small, have a vested interest in ensuring the authenticity and integrity of electronic image files, whether created and/or imported directly or through a network, throughout their whole life-cycle, from initial capture to eventual destruction, as evidence of business transactions and events. ISO/TR 15801:2004 defines recommended practices for electronic storage of business or other information in image form such as correspondence, forms and drawings. It describes procedures whereby an electronic copy may be demonstrated to be a true copy of the original, whether that original was itself an electronic data file or a physical source document. ISO/TR 15801:2004 is available from ISO national member institutes and from ISO Central Secretariat.
