Abstract
In this paper an overview of the challenges to long term preservation of digital objects is given. We highlight threats, which can be posed by humans, hardware/software, environment and institutions to long term digital preservation systems, with specific emphasis to security threats. Some technological solutions are described, and the Italian experience on long term digital preservation is briefly described.
