N

13、ational bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity.

In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.International Standards are drafted in accordance with t

15、he rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards.

18、14(E)IntroductionSome documents can contain information that must not be disclosed to some communities. Modified documents can be released to these communities after an appropriate processing of the original document. This processing can include the removal of sections, paragraphs or sentences with,

19、 where appropriate, the mention that they have been removed. This process is called the “redaction” of the document.The digital redaction of documents is a relatively new area of document management practice, raising unique issues and potential risks. Where digital documents are redacted, removed in

20、formation must not be recoverable. Hence, care needs to be taken so that redacted information is permanently removed from the digital document (e.g. it must not be simply hidden within nondisplayable portions of the document).This International Standard specifies methods for digital redaction of dig

21、ital documents.Redaction can also involve the removal of document metadata or the removal of some information (e.g. an image) imported into the document.It can be possible to identify redacted information in a redacted digital document by context. For example, the length of the redaction replacement

22、 text can indicate the length of the redacted information, and thus the information itself. This International Standard introduces two levels of redaction: BASIC redaction where context is not taken into consideration; ENHANCED redaction where context is taken into consideration.Redaction techniques

23、 can be used for the anonymization of the information in a document, for example by the removal of some names within sentences. It can also involve the removal of numbers within sentences and their replacement by “XXX”. ISO/IEC 2014 All rights reserved vCopyright British Standards Institution Provid

It should be used when, for example, one or two individual words, a sentence

33、 or paragraph, an image, a name, address and/or signature needs to be removed from a document prior to it being disclosed to individuals who are not authorized to view the removed information.The process of digital redaction is not simply to remove information but also to indicate where necessary th

34、at some information has been removed, so that the reader knows that the document has been redacted. For example, there can be a need to know that some words or some paragraphs have been deleted in order to maintain the semantics of the non-redacted information.4.2 AnonymizationAs an example, one of

35、the purposes of redaction is to remove personally identifiable information (PII) from a document (anonymization). Where such a purpose is applicable, then redaction processes shall be so designed such that the identity of the individual about whose information is being redacted is protected.It can b

36、e, for example, that even though a name has been redacted from a document, the identity of the individual is evident from the remaining information. Where anonymization is required, all information that could be used to identify the individual shall be redacted. This shall include all information th

37、at could be used in conjunction with other information (which can be obtained from other sources) to identify the individual.5 Requirements5.1 OverviewOrganizations should have the capability to identify documents that need to be redacted prior to their release to other parts of the organization or

38、to others (such as the public).Redaction should be performed or overseen by reviewers that are knowledgeable about the documents and can determine what information is to be redacted. If reviewers identifying such information do not carry out redaction themselves, their instructions shall be specific

39、 e.g. Memo dated , paragraph no, line starting and ending etc.Redaction shall be carried out on copies of the digital document. The redaction process shall result in the creation of a new digital document where complete and irreversible removal of the redacted information is achieved. This new digit

40、al document shall be managed and disposed of in the same manner as the original document.2 ISO/IEC 2014 All rights reservedCopyright British Standards Institution Provided by IHS under license with BSI - Uncontrolled Copy Not for Resale-,-,-BS ISO/IEC 27038:2014ISO/IEC 27038:2014(E)When identifying

41、information that needs to be redacted prior to release, whole sentences or paragraphs should not be identified if only one or two words in that sentence or paragraph are to be redacted, unless the release would enable the identification of the redacted information by context.Where necessary, informa

42、tion relating to the effect that a digital document has been redacted shall be linked with the digital document. To identify the fact that a redaction process has been undertaken, redacted information may be replaced by a sentence stating that some information has been redacted.When redaction is per

43、formed on a digital document, any metadata included within the digital document shall be reviewed for redaction requirements and appropriate redactions undertaken.Where redaction is performed on a digital document that contains images, video and/or voice information, redaction techniques that remove

44、 the necessary information shall be used.5.2 Redaction principlesThe redaction of digital documents shall be carried out in accordance with the following principles: Retention of digital original documentThe original or master version of a digital document shall not be redacted redaction shall be ca

45、rried out on a copy of the digital document. Original digital documents (e.g. the un-redacted document) shall be retained and be accessible only to those authorized. Complete removal of redacted informationRedaction shall irreversibly remove the required information from the redacted version of the

46、document. The information shall be completely removed from the digital document, not simply from the displayable content. Security evaluated redactionRedaction shall always be carried out using methods approved by the organization. Controlled environmentElectronic redaction shall be carried out in a

47、n environment that provides access only to those trained and authorized to carry out redaction. Intermediary stagesAll the redacted documents in intermediary stages of the redaction process should be deleted. Only the original digital document and the appropriately redacted version should be retaine

48、d. Where a particular digital document is to be redacted in different ways (for example for different audiences), then it may be appropriate to temporarily retain intermediate stages until all redaction processes have been completed.If there are many digital documents that can have many redactions f

49、or different reasons, and if over time some of the reasons for redaction expire, it may be necessary to create and retain over time an intermediary copy that indicates the text or objects that should be redacted and the reasons for the redaction. The information is actually redacted when the redacted copy is produced. This provi
