Abstract:

Capturing an accurate and verifiable representation of a data record includes accessing displayable data of the data record and presentation information from a data source. The displayable data is rendered according to the presentation information. A visual representation of the rendered displayable data is captured. A representation of the data record is stored, including storing one or more metadata items identifying the data record, the captured visual representation of the rendered data record, cryptographic information usable to verify integrity of the stored data record, and a timestamp. Later, an accurate and verified representation of the data record can be provided using the cryptographic information to verify integrity of the representation of the data record, and then providing the one or more metadata items, the one or more captured visual representations, and the timestamp.
