  2. Data erasure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_erasure

    Data erasure (sometimes referred to as data clearing, data wiping, or data destruction) is a software-based method of data sanitization that aims to completely destroy all electronic data residing on a hard disk drive or other digital media by overwriting data onto all sectors of the device in an irreversible process. By overwriting the data on ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic-tape_data_storage

    In this method, a spinning disk with the tape heads embedded in the outer edge is placed perpendicular to the path of the tape. This method is used in Ampex's DCRsi instrumentation data recorders and the old Ampex quadruplex videotape system. Another early method was arcuate scan. In this method, the heads are on the face of a spinning disk ...

    [4] [5] [6] Similar effects have been documented in copying of VHS tapes. [7] This is because both services use lossy codecs on all data that is uploaded to them, even if the data being uploaded is a duplicate of data already hosted on the service, while VHS is an analog medium, where effects such as noise from interference can have a much more ...

  5. Data remanence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_remanence

    Hard drive mechanically broken by a data destroying device (after degaussing) Thorough destruction of the underlying storage media is the most certain way to counter data remanence. However, the process is generally time-consuming, cumbersome, and may require extremely thorough methods, as even a small fragment of the media may contain large ...

  6. Data sanitization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_sanitization

    Data sanitization methods are also applied for the cleaning of sensitive data, such as through heuristic-based methods, machine-learning based methods, and k-source anonymity. [ 2 ] This erasure is necessary as an increasing amount of data is moving to online storage, which poses a privacy risk in the situation that the device is resold to ...

  7. Magnetic storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_storage

    As of 2021, common uses of magnetic storage media are for computer data mass storage on hard disks and the recording of analog audio and video works on analog tape. Since much of audio and video production is moving to digital systems, the usage of hard disks is expected to increase at the expense of analog tape.
