  1. Archival systems are often tasked with storing highly valuable data that may be targeted by malicious actors. When the lifetime of the secret data is on the order of decades to centuries, the threat of improved cryptanalysis casts doubt on the long-term security of cryptographic techniques, which rely on hardness assumptions that are hard to prove over archival time scales. This threat makes the design of secure archival systems exceptionally difficult. Some archival systems turn a blind eye to this issue, hoping that current cryptographic techniques will not be broken; others often use techniques--—such as secret sharing—that are impractical at scale. This position paper sheds light on the core challenges behind building practically viable secure long-term archives; we identify promising research avenues towards this goal.
