The quality of being trust-worthy can be related to the following three properties:

  1. Security
  2. Irrefutability
  3. Availability

Security

If the data can only be accessed by someone who holds a piece of secret, then, the security of the data is protected by the ownership of such secret. Since people who don't have the secret simply have no access to the data content, therefore, the degree of security is determined by the strength of the secret protection. It stronger if the secret cannot be broken or guessed by the third party.

Irrefutability

The data content is irrefutable, if the data content includes information that indicates the sources of the data, while the data set can be reliably examined to show that no external influence has changed the data content.

Availability

Some thing becomes available, when the resources is available over spacetime through Backup and Restore as a required reflexive procedure.
