Decommissioning - Magtek iDynamo 5 Gen III Manual

4 - Operation and Maintenance
The device verifies each update is newer than the installed version, and cryptographically authenticates
the file. If version checking or authentication fails, the device erases the update file and reports an error
to the host.

Decommissioning

Before iDynamo 5 Gen III products are permanently removed from service, all the keys and sensitive data
must be erased. One way to accomplish this is by temporarily removing the back cover, which forces a
tamper response.
If removal from service is only temporary, no action is required. All sensitive data will continue to be
protected by the device's physical and logical protection mechanisms.
