NATO AEDP-4 PDF

Introduction

The NATO Advanced Data Storage Interface (NADSI) working group has identified the Sanitization of solid state, high density magnetic disks, RAID, and other advanced recording technology memory elements as an important issue in the ISR user community. Command infrastructure and functional capability to perform the necessary operations need to be included in any system that is required to sanitize data storage elements. Incorporating this capability during the design effort is the most effective approach. Sanitization times for the advanced technologies, which incorporate large storage capacities, can be significant and efficient means of sanitization should be addressed during design. This AEDP provides the Data Purge and sanitization guidelines for FLASH Solid State Recorder (SSR) memory, RAID and Disk data storage systems that use Advanced Data Storage Technology (ADST).
