The Trustworthy Repository Audit and Certification (TRAC) Checklist is a tool by which repositories measure their ability to fulfill their responsibilities to their clients and stakeholders. Based on the Open Archival Information System (OAIS) reference model, TRAC provides a comprehensive list of policies, processes and practices needed by a trustworthy repository to operate. The documentation that makes up a TRAC report serves as the basis for transparent communication with stakeholders of the repository's policies, practices and processes.
UC3 will be developing and providing documentation from the TRAC Checklist:
- 3. Organizational Infrastructure
- 4. Digital Object Management
- 5. Infrastructure and Security Risk Management
- Glossary

The category numbers correspond to the chapters in the Audit and Certification of Trustworthy Digital Repositories (The Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems, September 2011).
