The process of ensuring the security of digital archival documents in the conditions of the active hostilities (and primarily we are talking about digital archival documents of the National Archival Holdings (hereinafter – NAH)) requires archival institutions to develop and implement the package of preventive and active measures in order to minimize the consequences of the active hostilities, such as theft, destruction, or damage to the digital archival documents. The research method comprises the application of special-scientific (historical-source analysis) and general-scientific (analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization) methods. The specificity of the topic under study involves the use of empirical research methods that reveal the ways of systematic development of the state archives in the conduct of active hostilities on the territory of Ukraine.
