Abstract:
Electronic court case management has widely been implemented around the globe. As a result, the rate of case dispensation increases significantly, offering a much better performance of justice delivery system. However, some implementation projects were not confounded with a comprehensive legal and organisational framework which brings about the exposure to certain types of risks such as confidentiality, integrity and availability of court records and information. This paper aims to outline the legal framework for sustainable electronic court records and information management with a specific scrutiny on the international standards available for digital court records in this information age, which include the MS ISO 31000:2010 and various standards for Information Security Management System ISMS.
