The Storage Security Shake-Up: Adapt Now or Get Left Behind

image 1062917

Storage security changes and adaptations are a fact of life as organizations navigate the ever-evolving threat landscape and shifting regulatory requirements. Often, a black swan event, a new standard, or a regulation acts as a catalyst prompting companies to review and update their controls and practices to protect sensitive data effectively.

One recent development capturing attention is the publication of NIST Special Publication 800-88 Rev. 2, *Guidelines for Media Sanitization*. While this update highlights the critical importance of storage security, it is just one of several noteworthy advancements. Organizations like SNIA, the Open Compute Project (OCP), the Trusted Computing Group (TCG), and IEEE are actively developing or have already established standards and specifications that are poised to shape the future of storage security.

A recurring theme across many of these initiatives is storage sanitization—that is, the controlled eradication of data to ensure it cannot be recovered or misused.
