  • Standard 681S3 Media Sanitization
    STATE OF ALABAMA Information Technology Standard STANDARD 681S3-00: MEDIA SANITIZATION A key element of information security is confidentiality, protecting data stored on digital and non- digital media from unauthorized disclosure throughout the system life cycle. Legacy data remaining on storage media poses significant security vulnerability and is an organizational liability if the data is compromised or otherwise disclosed. When storage media are transferred, become obsolete, or are no longer usable as a result of damage, it is important to ensure that residual magnetic, optical, or electrical representation of data that has been deleted is no longer recoverable. Sanitization is the process of removing data from storage media, such that there is reasonable assurance, in proportion to the sensitivity of the data, that the data may not be retrieved and reconstructed. Once the media is sanitized, it should be impossible or impractical to retrieve the data. OBJECTIVE: Define requirements for sanitization of stored data assets that provide an appropriate level of security (in accordance with State IT Policy 681: Information Protection) to State of Alabama information. SCOPE: These requirements apply to all Executive Branch agencies, boards, and commissions except those exempt under The Code of Alabama 1975 (Title 41 Chapter 4 Article 11). REQUIREMENTS: The following State of Alabama requirements are based on the recommendations of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) found in Special Publication 800-88: Guidelines for Media Sanitization. Storage media covered by these requirements includes but is not limited to paper and microforms, hand-held devices (cell phones, personal digital assistants, palm devices), networking devices, floppies, hard drives, USB removable media with or without hard drives (including pen drives, thumb drives, flash drives, memory sticks), ZIP disks, magnetic tapes, optical disks, and memory.

  • 1350.20B Order Federal Aviation Administration
    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 1350.20B ORDER FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION SUN: MICROGRAPHICS / ELECTRONIC IMAGE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM 1. PURPOSE. This order establishes procedures and assigns responsibilities for the effective management of micro- graphics and optical disk systems in FAA. 2. DISTRIBUTION. This order is distributed to the division level in Washington, regions, and centers, and to all Records Management Officers. 3. CANCELLATION. Order 1350.20A, Micrographics Management Program, dated December 12, 1981, is canceled. 4. BACKGROUND. Recent advances in micrographics and optical disk technologies now provide atfractive alterna- tives to the printed page. These advances have been stimulated by the spiraling increases in the cost of postage and printing; the continued proliferation of paperwork; and the emergence of new automated relrieval methods. 5. EXPLANATION OF CHANGES. This revision expands the agency's micrographics management program to in- clude optical disk systems. Also included are pertinent references to Federal regulations recently issued by General Serv- ices Administration (GSA) and National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). a. Micrographics is the technology which reduces any form of information to microform for later use. b. Microform is a general term for microimages recorded on film that includes microfiche, aperture cards, micro- film, and computer-Output-Microfiche (COM). c. Micrographic System is a configuration of equipment and procedures that utilizes microforms for the produc- tion, reproduction, viewing, or retrieval of required documentation. d. Micropublishing is the use of microforms in lieu of printed copy involving production of more than 250 dupli- cates from original microform. Administrative records converted to microforms are excluded. e. Optical Disk is a laser recorded medium that can electronically store up to 80,000 pages or images per disk in Write Once Read Many (WORM) format and up to 300,000 pages per disk for the Compact Disk-Read Only Memory (CD-ROM) type.

  • OFFICE ADMINISTRATION Section 1, Records Management Chapter 1, Filing Systems
    OFFICE ADMINISTRATION Section 1, Records Management Chapter 1, Filing Systems The basic premise for establishing filing systems within an organization is the ability to retrieve records. Appropriate storage of records is the key to records retrieval; a means to an end, with the end being retrieval. The average cost of each misfiled record or filing error is more than $100. A. ANALYZING RECORDS AND RECORDS SYSTEMS Information in the form of documents can be categorized as records and nonrecords. Records are official documents valuable enough to be retained and stored in a format for future use. Nonrecords are of temporary use and eventually disposed of. Classifying Records Records are either active or inactive and classified according to use. Active records are accessed and utilized in the current administration of business functions. Inactive records are no longer referred to on a regular basis but still of limited importance. Importance of Records Records are classified as vital, important, useful, or nonessential. Vital records are irreplaceable such as accounting, insurance policies, legal documents, etc. Important records can be replaced or duplicated if lost or destroyed. Useful records can be easily replaced and nonessential records are not necessary for the restoration of the company and have no predictable value. The Records Cycle A record’s life cycle extends from the moment the record is created until its final disposition. Figure 1- 1 on page 4 of your book shows a records life cycle diagram. Records retention schedules are developed and the value of specific records is determined. A schedule specifies the period of time a record should be stored.

  • Microforms: Marriages, Mergers, and Migrations
    University of South Florida Scholar Commons School of Information Faculty Publications School of Information 2005 Microforms: Marriages, Mergers, and Migrations Authors: Anna H. Perrault “Migration” is a term used to describe the reformatting of materials or the moving of information from one format to a different format. The onc version of printed and original documents to microformats was a migration from paper, which was regarded as impermanent, to film, which was regarded as permanent. Today the term “migration” is most often used to denote the conversion of print or microform texts to electronic format to another. This paper begins with a brief history of the development of microforms as a storage and preservation medium with emphasis on the last two decades of the twentieth century in the United States. Recent issues in access and preservation are examined. Finally, the future of microforms is considered in light of migration to electronic formats for preservation.

  • Some Useful E-Records Terms
    Terms Useful in Working With E-Records: Artificial Intelligence (AI) – field of computer science that deals with the development of systems that mimic human intelligence such as problem solving Automatic indexing – the automated selection of key words from a document in order to develop index entries (also see Classifying) Backfile conversion – the process of identifying, indexing, coding, and/or inputting a large volume or backlog of documents into a recordkeeping system Backup – the process of duplicating information, primarily for protection against damage or loss (i.e. backup tapes) Bar code – a coding system of vertical lines or bars set in a predetermined pattern that, when read by an optical reader, can be converted to machine-readable language. Bit – the smallest unit of information recognized by a computer 8 bits = 1 byte 1,024 bytes = 1K (kilobyte) 1,000 K = 1MB (megabyte) (1,048,576 bytes) 1,000MB = 1GB aka 1GIG (gigabyte) (1,073,741,824 bytes) 1,000GB = 1TR (terabyte) (one trillion bytes) 1,000TR = 1PB (petabyte) (one quadrillion bytes) FYI – a terabyte or more of storage space has become possible for personal computers – cost of TR of memory in 2005, $450; down from $1,000 in 2003 Bit-mapped image file – a computer processible file that encodes images as patterns of dots - often referred to as raster graphics Classifying – the act of analyzing and determining the subject content of a document and then selecting the subject category under which it will be filed. (Some new RM software systems have the capability to “auto classify” documents based on key words.) Cold site – an unfurnished space suitable for the installation of computer and communications equipment.
