First actor is an originator user computer system wherein a file is generated for containing the digital document, digital conditioning attributes corresponding to at least one predetermined event that is liable to affect the data in future use and information that secures data integrity are associated with the data. Second actor is a future user computer system which causes an occurrence of the predetermined event. Third actor is a remote computer system arranged for detecting the event occurrence by storing digital conditioning attributes and information that secures data integrity without knowledge of the digital document.
