Instant Secure Erase

You can use the Instant Secure Erase (ISE) functionality to remove confidential data out of a drive before returning the equipment.

OneFS now enables you to use the Instant Secure Erase (ISE) feature. This is a Data Security Standard (DSS) feature that is coupled with isi_drive_d. ISE adds the ability to use the cryptographic sanitize command (SANITIZE-cryptographic for SAS, and CRYPTO SCRAMBLE EXT for ATA). This command helps you to jumble-up readable data on supported drives and securely erase confidential data out of a drive .

The following drives now have ISE support:

  • SAS HDD and SSD:
    • Seagate Skybolt (300GB/600GB/900GB/1.2TB) - 2.5" HDD
    • Toshiba PM5 - 2.5" SSD
