Process

  • Planning
    • Classification of the Asset? Value of Asset?
      • Each sanitisation takes time and cost, so managing scope is important.
    • Does it have valuable information?
    • Public-accessible machines may not need sanitisation
    • Should data be destroyed? - Consider other legislative requirements? (e.g. Archive)
  • Making sure there are 2 people (one as a witness)
  • Risk during Sanitisation Process
    • Chain-of-Custody Certificate
    • Assets need to have an identity and description. Used for destruction certificates.
