ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

Your organization is migrating its on-premises database cluster to AWS. After successful cut-over, you must retire twelve 1 TB self-encrypting SSDs that held customer payment data. The drives will be repurposed for a non-production lab. Which action should you take to satisfy SSCP end-of-life confidentiality requirements while allowing rapid internal reuse of the media?

  • Place each drive in a degausser certified for hard-disk destruction to eliminate residual charge in the NAND cells.

  • Run a full 7-pass DoD 5220.22-M overwrite on each SSD before placing them in the lab environment.

  • Contract a certified vendor to shred the SSDs and purchase new drives for the lab servers.

  • Execute a cryptographic erase by deleting the SED key material and confirm the key can no longer be accessed.
