Gestão arquivística e administração pública: a preservação e a segurança dos documentos arquivísticos digitais

Given the multiplication of information in recent years, a result of globalization and technological advances, this study promoted a literature review in search of existing methods for the preservation and security of digital archival documents in order to ensure their future access, as well as their authenticity and integrity in the long term. In this way, this study aimed to identify the cause of deficiencies in the preservation of digital archival documents, as well as to propose possible solutions. To this end, bibliographic and exploratory research methods were used as technical procedures, with a qualitative approach, related to document management and the preservation of digital documents. We also sought, as a conceptual basis, to analyze the, in the Brazilian case, Law of Archives, the Law of Access to Information and the General Law of Protection of Personal Data, as well as the guidelines established by the National Council of Archives, and to bring a practical case to verify the applicability of the concepts addressed in this study. Finally, the research reveals challenges involving the preservation of archival information in digital media, among them the rapid physical degradation of the media and technological obsolescence, and proposes the use of reliable digital archival repositories as one of the solutions to these problems.
