The advances of computer technology offer many new opportunities but also new challenges. One of the most important challenges is tackling the problem of digital archiving: ensuring that the digital information we create and store today will continue to be accessible for as long as we may need it.

Industry commentators have raised the prospect of a “digital dark age” stretching from the late 20th to the early 21st century, as huge amounts of digital information are at risk of loss. It is now becoming well recognized that a failure to address such problems puts organizations not only at risk of losing valuable intangible assets but also in danger of failing to comply with legal or regulatory requirements.
