ANAB opens its ISO 16363 accreditation program

ANAB has launched its new accreditation program for ISO 16363 – Audit and certification of trustworthy digital repositories.

The standard is seen as a solution to concerns of data preservation for many industries. Any industry that has preservation requirements, whether mandatory or voluntary, will benefit from accredited certification to ISO 16363 for digital repositories.
ANAB will use ISO 16919 –Requirements for bodies providing audit and certification of candidate trustworthy digital repositories, a companion standard based on ISO/IEC 17021-1, for accreditation.
