How Museums and Archives Battle Deepfake History with Immutable Storage: The Power of OpticalBackup
The rise of deepfake technology has caused a paradigm shift in how we perceive the preservation of history. As museums and archives adapt to the digital age, the challenge of ensuring the authenticity and accuracy of historical documentation is becoming increasingly complex. This makes the role of reliable, long-term backup solutions such as OpticalBackup more crucial than ever.
Deepfakes and the Threat to Historical Authenticity
Deepfakes, or manipulated media content, are becoming more sophisticated, making it harder to differentiate between real and fake. A study by University College London listed deepfakes as one of the emerging threats to society, especially in terms of disseminating misinformation (source: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/news/2020/jul/deepfakes-ranked-among-top-10-threats-society). This rise in digitally altered content is a significant concern for museums and archives, which depend on the authenticity of artifacts and documents to maintain historical integrity.
The Role of Immutable Storage
Immutable storage offers a solution to this growing problem. It provides a secure, unalterable backup of data that can be used to verify the authenticity of historical documents and artifacts. Immutable backup means that once data is written, it cannot be modified or deleted, ensuring the permanent preservation of original files.
