    Study Notes

    Cryptographic Erase

    • Cryptographic erase is a method for permanently removing data from storage devices (e.g., hard drives, SSDs).
    • This technique relies on overwriting data with cryptographic keys and algorithms.
    • The process makes data recovery virtually impossible, even with advanced tools.
