ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question

While retiring a self-encrypting solid-state storage array that held Controlled Unclassified Information, which action best satisfies NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 requirements for sanitization before the hardware is transferred to a reseller?

  • Issue a cryptographic erase command that destroys the media encryption keys and verify purge completion

  • Perform one random overwrite pass on selected logical volumes and run SMART self-tests

  • Power down the array, remove asset tags, and rely on the drive's built-in garbage collection to clear data

  • Retain one encrypted backup offsite and ship the drives intact to the reseller under non-disclosure agreement
