Defines the minimum data fields a registry record must carry before it can be published, and the conditions under which a record is withdrawn from publication.
Scope
Applies to all record types published in the trust registry.
Requirements
A record may be published only once the subject name, record type, issuing authority, status, and the date the status was last verified are all recorded. Records lacking a verifiable issuing authority are not published.
A published record is withdrawn from public display, rather than deleted, where the underlying source record is retracted by the issuing authority or where the subject is confirmed, through the review and correction process, not to be the entity the record described.
Methodology
Publication is triggered by receipt of a corroborated source record from a recognised issuing authority. Corroboration standards are set out in 1C-STD-002 where a recognition chain is involved.
Governance
The registry operations function is accountable for publication decisions, subject to the oversight of the Standards and Integrity function described in the governance page.
