Now the challenge:
One special customer requests us to provide detailed information
(logfiles or
something similar) about shredding all his backup data.
Yes,
media are overwritten until decommissioned. So shredding happens at
that time. Now, to your customer, you only need to prove that you
properly destroyed your tapes when you did. Optionally, you might want
to prove that only your customer can access the tapes, using
statically assigned volumes in his storagepool, dedicated server
instances etc. That all depends on how much the customer is willing to
pay for additional cost...
I'd suggest to the customer that proper certified destruction of the
media and well defined procedures that that is what he is willing to
pay for, and that everything extra is disproportionally more expensive
and give it a good factor of 10 or more, so that if he really wants,
he can get it and you can cover the cost.
DISK scrubbing is designed for those customers that don't want to
destroy a disk when it breaks, but still don't want the data to leave
the building.
In the end it all boils down to procedures, not technology. Stricter
procedures are more expensive. Only a bank has bank-level security,
and there is a r€a$on for that....
