This is a commitment made in the Culture White Paper (2016). Central to the Strategy is the role of Local Authority Historic Environment Records as the first point of call and primary trusted source of information about the historic environment. Transfer of the terrestrial part of the National Record of the Historic Environment (NRHE), which is currently maintained by Historic England, to local HERs is proposed. The National Security Copy (NSC) is one strand that will help deliver the Strategy. Its goal is to ensure that a secure copy of the complete shared national heritage record exists to protect against data loss, whether as a result of a technical failure or the withdrawal of service. The NSC is to be held by Historic England and local HERs as a dispersed copy with each data owner responsible for ensuring security of their own data. This project will progress the National Security Copy by identifying what needs to done to implement the model for a dispersed copy. The project will have the following outputs: best practice development supported by guidance and training; a robust system for the monitoring of adherence; and a shared understanding of how and when the NSC can be accessed in the event of a HER service being withdrawn.
