Preservation Digital Media

Preservation of digital media involves maintaining and safeguarding digital files, formats, and storage media to ensure they remain accessible and usable over time. This includes regularly updating formats, migrating data to new storage solutions, and managing hardware to prevent deterioration. The goal is to protect digital content—like videos, images, documents—from obsolescence, corruption, or loss caused by technology changes, hardware failure, or cyber threats. Proper digital preservation ensures that valuable digital information remains available and functional for future generations or ongoing research, effectively extending the life of digital assets beyond their original technology or media.
