What should you do to preserve records with a long life cycle?: KMWorld

Unseen dangers lurk. Opportunistic bacteria, crocodiles and sleeper cells
all lie in wait for the right moment to wreak havoc on the unaware. Some
hide, some take cover and some wear camouflage until the moment of
revelation. To paraphrase Thomas Pynchon, paranoia is valid when the threat
is real.

Add to the list of dangers: digital records with long life cycles. If a
digital file is a record, it is important, by definition. Keeping an
(important) digital record viable for a long time is problematic.
