ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question

While retiring a database server containing highly sensitive personal data, your team plans to redeploy its self-encrypting solid-state drives (SEDs) in the internal development lab. To satisfy secure data disposition requirements under NIST SP 800-88, which sanitization technique should you implement before redeployment?

  • Expose the drives to a certified degausser rated for current coercivity levels.

  • Perform a cryptographic erase by deleting and regenerating the SEDs' encryption keys.

  • Send the drives for shredding and procure new hardware for the development lab.

  • Overwrite each drive once with pseudo-random data using a software wiping utility.
