Abstract

Abstract This article presents results from an exploratory survey of 15 archivists, librarians, directors, and technicians regarding the security of digital collections. Participants defined security in terms of integrity, confidentiality, availability, detecting malicious actors, protection from physical damage, and protection from viruses. Findings suggest that while some participants reported encountering security threats related to confidentiality and availability, others reported that they either had not encountered any security threats or did not know if they had. This paper concludes by considering archivists’ knowledge of securing digital collections and their collaboration with IT staff. Future directions for research are discussed.

安全、档案管理员和数字藏品

摘要本文介绍了对15名档案管理员、图书馆员、馆长和技术人员进行的关于数字藏品安全的探索性调查的结果。参与者从完整性、机密性、可用性、检测恶意行为者、防止物理损坏和防止病毒等方面定义了安全性。调查结果表明，虽然一些参与者报告称遇到了与保密性和可用性有关的安全威胁，但另一些参与者报告说，他们要么没有遇到任何安全威胁，要么不知道是否遇到了。本文最后考虑了档案管理员保护数字藏品的知识以及他们与IT人员的合作。讨论了未来的研究方向。
