Digital Preservation and Network Security Protection: A Case Study of Landscape Painting in Ming Dynasty

In the global wave of digitalization, the digital preservation of Chinese Ming Dynasty landscape paintings has achieved remarkable results. According to statistics, major museums in China have scanned more than 60% of Ming Dynasty landscape paintings with high precision, and the digital preservation work covers a wide range. However, the accompanying cybersecurity challenges cannot be ignored either. In recent years, cyber attacks on digital platforms of cultural heritage have occurred frequently. Worldwide, the number of such attacks has exceeded 3 million every year, of which attacks on works of art account for as high as 15%. Faced with this grim situation, China has taken a series of measures to strengthen network security protection. By upgrading encryption technology, optimizing network security protection systems, and conducting regular network security training and drills, China has made remarkable progress in ensuring the security of digital works of art. According to the latest data, since the implementation of enhanced protection measures, the number of cyber attacks on the digital platform of landscape painting in Ming Dynasty in China has decreased by 35%, effectively protecting precious cultural heritage from cyber threats.
