Introduction
This document describes how to configure print and imaging devices with HP’s Secure File
Erase using Web Jetadmin 10.2. The Secure File Erase feature ensures that any part of a fax,
copy, digital send, or print job is securely removed from the device. There are 3 options: Non-
secure fast erase (erases indexes only), Secure fast erase (overwrites data), and Sanitizing
erase (overwrites data multiple times).
Secure Erase Technology
Normal y when a file is deleted from a HDD, the filename entry is erased from the disk’s file
al ocation table, removing the file’s presence. The file’s data stil exists in the disk’s individual
sectors and is overwrit en only when that sector is al ocated for a different file.
HP Secure Erase technology overwrites a deleted file’s data from the individual sectors with
random data using either a one pass or three pass overwrite, which conform to U.S.
Department of Defense 5220-22.M and NIST SP 800-88 specifications.
To enable HP Secure Erase, configure the “File Erase Mode” setting:
• Non-secure Fast Erase mode: Marks the print job data as deleted only
• Secure Fast Erase mode: Performs a one pass overwrite of job data which is sufficient to
prevent data from diagnostic recovery per NIST SP800-88 guidelines.
• Secure Sanitizing Erase mode: Performs a three pass overwrite of job data as recommended
by the US Department of Defense 5220.22M specification.
For an explanation of each erase algorithm, see Specifications.
HP Secure Erase technology is applied in two different ways to remove data from HDD storage
devices.
• Secure File Erase overwrites files on a continuous basis as soon as they are no longer
needed to perform the required function. This is initiated by setting the “File Erase Mode”
setting to either “Secure Fast Erase” or “Secure Sanitizing Erase”.
• Secure Storage Erase removes al non-essential data from storage devices in a manor
consistent with preparation for decommissioning or redeployment. This operation can be
initiated on demand or scheduled for a later date and time.
Data Affected
Secure File Erase
When enabled, al data removed from the system by a delete operation is erased using a
secure erase mode, either Secure Fast Erase or Secure Sanitizing Erase.
This includes
• Temporary files created during the print, scan, fax, and copying processes
• User initiated delete operations including the four Job Storage type documents
o Stored Job (manual delete)
o Quick Copy (manual delete)
