This document describes instrument security features and the steps to declassify an
instrument through memory clearing, sanitization or removal.

that must be saved, is properly backed up before attempting to
clear any of the instrument memory. Keysight Technologies cannot

Definition
As defined in Section 8-301a of DoD 5220.22-M, clearing is the process of
eradicating the data on media before reusing the media so that the data can no
longer be retrieved using the standard interfaces on the instrument. Clearing is
typically used when the instrument is to remain in an environment with an
acceptable level of protection.
A term that refers to procedures that must be undertaken before an instrument can
be removed from a secure environment, such as is the case when the instrument is
returned for calibration. Declassification procedures include memory sanitization or
memory removal, or both. Keysight declassification procedures are designed to meet
the requirements specified in DoD 5220.22-M, Chapter 8.
As defined in Section 8-301b of DoD 5220.22-M, sanitization is the process of
removing or eradicating stored data so that the data cannot be recovered using any
known technology. Instrument sanitization is typically required when an instrument
is moved from a secure to a non-secure environment, such as when it is returned to
the factory for calibration.
Keysight memory sanitization procedures are designed for customers who need to
meet the requirements specified by the US Defense Security Service (DSS). These
requirements are specified in the "Clearing and Sanitization Matrix" in Section
5.2.5.5.5 of the ISFO Process Manual.
Secure Erase is a term that is used to refer to either the clearing or sanitization
features of Keysight instruments.
