Disposal of Computer Hard Drives Sanitization of hard drives is the process of removing sensitive information from storage media in a manner that gives assurance that the information cannot be recovered by keyboard or laboratory attack. Before the sanitization process begins, the computer should be disconnected from any external network to prevent accidental damage to the network operating system (OS) or other files on the network. In addition, when possible, users should audit the sanitizing process to ensure data is no longer retrievable. This means a knowledgeable person should witness the sanitization process and verify that the hard drive was sanitized.

For example it may be used for working on particular tasks, to clarify issues when working on collaborative tasks and to support team working. IM may be particularly suited for short term tasks for which no archive is needed and other team members need not be involved - for example, arranging a meeting place.
