A government agency is getting rid of older workstations. The agency will donate these workstations, along with other excess computer systems, to nearby schools. Management reminds the systems administrators about the data sanitization and disposal policy. What policy items are applicable for these IT systems, prior to donating to the schools

The answer is "Using the DoD 5220.22-M method and  Degauss media with a magnet".

Explanation:

The "DoD Standard" is a term used during the data sanitizing industry and refers to DoD 5220.22-M. The simplest ways are being used to help eliminate the previously stored data, by deleting hard disc storage facilities with the same data wherever that used a sequence of all zeros.

The sparging eliminates statistics to entirely delete the gravitational flux from electronic media. Hard drives as well as other data storage devices, for example, computer tapes, retain magnetic data. It could no longer be seen as storage after a disk is degaussed.
