Description (en)
The increasing demands faced by repository systems and the growing popularity of workflow systems introduces new risks, creating new challenges to the digital preservation community. The application of risk management practices to digital preservation is a way of managing the risks associated with the use of such systems and to optimize the application of digital preservation treatments to such risks. In this paper, we present results of a case study conducted on two use cases: a repository system and an automated workflow representing a typical digital preservation quality assessment process. We used a risk assessment approach to identify risks related not only to the technical but also organizational and legal aspects. We assigned controls which decrease their impact and explained how the digital preservation related controls can also improve the current functioning of the repository system and increase reproducibility of the workflows.
