Preventing a transmission of an incorrect copy of a record of data to a distributed ledger system

A computer system comprising:

• a processor;
• a plurality of instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
• in response to receiving a first file, sending by the processor to a device associated with a first entity, at least a description of subject matter of a record to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system, wherein the first file comprises:
• recorded audio and/or video;
• a description of a subject matter of the record;
• and
• an authorization to cause the record to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system;
• receive a confirmation that the description of the subject matter is correct;
• receive a confirmation that a second entity that controlled production of at least a portion of the first file has permission to authorize causing the record to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system;
• responsive to receiving the confirmation that the second entity has permission to authorize causing the record to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system, cause the record to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system;
• and
• responsive to a failure to receive the confirmation that the second entity has permission to authorize causing the record to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system, prevent transmission of the record to the distributed ledger system.
