Time Machine (digital preservation)

Time Machine in digital preservation refers to creating regular, automatic backups of your data so you can restore previous versions if files are lost or corrupted. It acts like a virtual time capsule, allowing you to retrieve or revert to past states of your documents, photos, or system settings. This ensures data integrity, minimizes loss, and facilitates recovery after hardware failures, accidental deletion, or malware attacks. Essentially, it provides a systematic way to protect and recover digital information over time, maintaining the continuity and safety of your digital assets.
