NIST Issues Guidelines for Data Removal
Joab Jackson writes on GCN.com:
Wonder no longer about how to remove sensitive data from the hard drives and optical disks you are about to toss. The National Institute of Standards and Technology has issued a set of draft guidelines on how to safely remove information from obsolete forms of storage.
Matthew Scholl, Richard Kissel, Steven Skolochenko and Xing Li of the NIST Information Technology Laboratory authored Special Publication 800-88 [.pdf], “Guidelines for Media Sanitization: Recommendations of the National Institute of Standards and Technology,” which was sponsored by the Homeland Security Department.
