1. E. Sanitization: Before a corporate asset like a laptop is given to a new employee, all remnants of the previous user's data must be completely and irreversibly removed (e.g., via a cryptographic erase or overwriting data). This prevents data leakage or unauthorized access to sensitive company and personal information. 2. B. Certification: Once the device is properly sanitized, the administrator must document and verify the process. Certification provides an audit trail and formal proof that the security policy was followed and that the device is safe to reuse.
Potential Classified Information needs to be completely destroyed, other data sanitized.
Certification is the process of verifying and documenting and it means a specific action has been completed according to policy. And Destruction is referring to the data or even storage, not necessarily the laptop itself. So I vote for E.Sanitization and C. Destruction
