STANDARDS GUIDE

Record the basis for the decision, not only the method name.

Use published guidance such as NIST SP 800-88 as a reference when considering an erasure approach suited to the device and its intended disposition.

GUIDE

A practical order for review

Start with the intended dispositionClarify whether the device will be reused, returned, transferred, or disposed of after the operation.
Review the media and its conditionIdentify the device or media type, its operating condition, and the erasure options available.
Pair the method with verificationDesign the erasure action, result review, and recordkeeping as one operational procedure.
State what the record meansUse the record to explain the target, method, and result without separating it from the conditions behind the decision.
