Anonymous Patron writes “British Library secures integrity of digital archive: The British Library is to secure the integrity of its National Digital Library by authenticating electronic documents and other materials.
The library is expected to amass up to 300 terabytes of content over the next five years including digitised versions of centuries-old manuscripts, digital journals and web archives.
A document sealing engine from vendor nCipher is being used to timestamp and digitally sign every item stored in the library to prove they have not been modified from the original.”
