Dell EMC Associate – PowerEdge Server Specialist — Question 36

What occurs during the Data Wiping process?

Answer options

• A. Destroys CDs and DVDs by pulverizing and cross-cut shredding
• B. Disposes sensitive data using file detection, disk formatting, and file encryption
• C. Temporarily removes data from a readwrite medium so that it can no longer be read
• D. Logically connects storage media to a bulk-wiping device

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer, C, indicates that data is temporarily removed from a readwrite medium, making it unreadable. Option A describes physical destruction, which is not data wiping. Option B talks about disposing of data rather than wiping, and option D refers to connecting devices but does not address the wiping process itself.
