Technical and Security Aspects of the CoreTrustSeal Application

Past work through the CESSDA Trust Working Group has identified that technical and security infrastructure elements are a challenge for repositories undertaking self-assessments against the CoreTrustSeal. This is perhaps because staff undertaking self-assessments are usually from the curation rather than the technical side of the organisation. The CoreTrustSeal addresses the issues of technical and security infrastructure mainly through Requirements 15 and 16, however, technology and security aspects come into the picture throughout all of the Requirements. Repositories, doing their self-assessments against the CoreTrustSeal should be aware of the issues they need to take into consideration when conducting self-assessments. The poster will present an overview of all of the Requirements from the technical and security point of view, focusing in more detail on Requirements 15 and 16, and identify possible questions, issues, and activities repositories should take into consideration when preparing the application for the CoreTrustSeal. It will show what activities and supporting evidence could be provided for in order to meet the requirements

Projektrapport till Kungl. biblioteket, Programmet för OpenAccess.se

Var och hur forskningsdata ska lagras, vilka delar kan publiceras som open access, hur bör koppling ske mellan öppna arkiv och Svensk Nationell Datatjänst och slutligen hur koppling bör ske mellan publikation och tillhörande forskningsdata, är frågor projektet har ställt sig. Ett 20-tal intervjuer med forskare har utförts inom ramen för projektet. Några kärnfrågor återkommer: När i forskningsprocessen aktualiseras datafrågorna, vem äger rätten till forskningsdata, vad är det faktiska värdet av att tillhandahålla data? Generellt finns bland forskarna en i huvudsak positiv attityd till att lagra och tillgängliggöra forskningsdata open access. Idag lagras data ofta på en mängd olika sätt, i många fall även inom ett och samma forskningsprojekt. Som exempel nämns egna hemsidor, olika former av portabla lagringsmedia, institutionens servrar, externa portaler och nätverk, sociala nätverk som YouTube. Här efterlyser man befintliga, enhetliga system, liksom stöd – både tekniskt och policymässigt, vad beträffar upphovsrätt och tillgång.Kungl. biblioteket, Programmet för OpenAccess.s

DASISH Reference Model for SSH Data Infrastructures

The current ”rising tide of scientific data” accelerates the need for e-infrastructures to support the lifecycle of data in research, from creation to reuse [RTW]. Different types of e-infrastructures address this need. Consortia like GÉANT and EGI build technical infrastructures for networking and grid computing whereas social sciences & humanities (SSH) consortia like ESS, SHARE, CESSDA, CLARIN and DARIAH build SSH research infrastructures upon such technical infrastructures, providing services to support digital research within the social sciences and the humanities. These services vary from online survey tools and repositories for creating and preserving data to resolvers and authentication services for enabling seamless access to different services or data.Together these services form a data infrastructure. Apart from building and maintaining such data infrastructure, important functions of research infrastructures include e.g. standardisation and engagement

SSHOC D8.2 Certification plan for SSHOC repositories

This report is the first deliverable of Task 8.2 “Trust & Quality Assurance” within WP8 of the SSHOC project. The distributed character of data infrastructures within the SSHOC communities requires developing an agreed approach to assessing the trustworthiness and quality of data repositories. This deliverable provides an overview of Trusted Digital Repository (TDR) standards offering a certification framework for communities represented in the SSHOC project (CESSDA, CLARIN, DARIAH, E-RIHS). Moreover, the deliverable lays the ground for the SSHOC trust work that is needed in order to facilitate the adoption of TDR standards and the FAIR principles in SSH data repositories across the board. In this report, ‘trust’ refers to the landscape of issues, standards and processes related to trustworthy digital repositories. Trust between all parties in the quality of data and services is critical for research infrastructure in terms of people, processes and technologies. The level of trustworthiness can be assessed through evaluation against agreed requirements

List of Recommended Deposit Services for SSH: Deliverable 4.3 of the DASISH project

This report was produced in the context of the project Data Service Infrastructure for the Social Sciences and Humanities (DASISH) work package 4.3 Convergence of Data Services. The goal has been to allow the selection and promotion of high-quality deposit services for researchers in the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) and to make suggestions for service improvements
