It is a usual practice to place an embargo on the disclosure of testimonies of individuals at risk, such as during an ongoing military conflict, following an act of violence or of those dissenting an authoritarian regime. This lecture shows how to safely disclose testimonies while at the same time protecting individuals at risk. We present a secure integrated digital workflow specifically developed for the collection, preservation, analysis, and disclosure of such testimonies. It is put forward as a recommended best practice to digitally handle sensitive data in oral testimonies during ongoing conflicts. A special focus is placed on three main innovative solutions developed in Luxembourg: an extension of the Clarin Metadata Infrastructure (CMDI) metadata model in the form of a dedicated "sensitive data" field, a four-eyes content analysis method for the detection of sensitive data, and a newly custom-built application enabling granular access management consistent with interview usage categories, automated selection of permissible transcription types and automated muting of sensitive audio segments.
