Secure Disk Erase
You might need to protect deleted data from unauthorized access on the MFP hard drive. Secure
Disk Erase is a security feature that you can use to securely erase print and copy jobs from the hard
drive.
Secure Disk Erase offers the following levels of disk security:
■ Non-Secure Fast Erase. This is a simple file-table erase function. Access to the file is removed,
but actual data is retained on the disk until it is overwritten by subsequent data-storage
operations. This is the fastest mode. Non-Secure Fast Erase is the default erase mode.
■ Secure Fast Erase. Access to the file is removed, and the data is overwritten with a fixed
identical character pattern. This is slower than Non-Secure Fast Erase, but all data is
overwritten. Secure Fast Erase meets the U.S. Department of Defense 5220-22.M requirements
for the clearing of disk media.
■ Secure Sanitizing Erase. This level is similar to the Secure Fast Erase mode. In addition, data
is repetitively overwritten by using an algorithm that prevents any residual data persistence. This
mode will impact performance. Secure Sanitizing Erase meets the U.S. Department of Defense
5220-22.M requirements for the sanitization of disk media.
