ISO 23081-1:2017 — Managing Metadata for Records (records metadata)

# ISO 23081-1:2017 — Managing Metadata for Records (records metadata) — 100% of in-scope requirements covered.

5 requirements · 3 in scope (3 enforced) · 2 out-of-scope (outside KYE™’s authority layer). The 100% is weighted over the in-scope base.

**Source:** ISO 23081-1:2017 specifies the framework for creating, managing and using records-management metadata — describing the record, the agents, the business activity, and the relationships and events over the record's lifecycle. KYE Protocol™ does NOT generate or manage records metadata — Iron Mountain InSight DXP does. KYE Protocol™ CONSUMES records metadata (agent, classification, business activity) as the input signal at the action boundary: the §15 connector maps InSight DXP records-metadata fields → the KYE Protocol™ entity/evidence model. The metadata-creation and metadata-management requirements map out-of-scope; the metadata-driven action-decision (a classification/agent metadata field raising the authority bar before a consequential action) maps enforced. · **License:** ISO copyright — citation only; KYE™ registry cites clause structure for mapping purposes (no normative text reproduced).

## By category

| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Metadata-driven authority decision (authority overlay) | 2 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | **100%** |
| Agent-metadata binding to a KYE-resolved principal (authority overlay) | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | **100%** |
| Metadata creation & capture (records-management) | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | **0%** |
| Metadata management & maintenance (records-management) | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | **0%** |
