Abstract

It is well known that the suitability of many cryptographic algorithms decreases with time. Hence, it is a challenging task to maintain the integrity, authenticity, confidentiality and availability of sensitive data over very long periods of time. A scalable approach to preserve the integrity and authenticity of archived data has been standardized in [12]. The confidentiality and availability of data can be supported using secret sharing techniques according to [26]. This paper introduces a reference architecture for trustworthy long-term archiving of sensitive data based on the combination of these approaches.
