ISC2 CISSP Practice Question

Your organization is decommissioning a rack of self-encrypting solid-state drives (SSDs) that once stored highly sensitive customer records. The drives will be released to an outside recycling vendor, but they must first be sanitized so that the data can never be recovered, while still allowing the vendor to reuse the hardware. Which sanitization option BEST fulfills this requirement?

  • Perform a quick format of each partition

  • Physically shred each SSD into small fragments

  • Issue the drive's Secure Erase (cryptographic erase) command and verify completion

  • Delete all files and empty the recycle bin
