Researchers Discover SATA Cables Could Leak Data from Air-Gapped Systems
Air-gapped systems are isolated systems that remain segregated to keep sensitive information offline. While these systems are considered safe due to no connection with the internet world, they’re often the subject of interest for researchers to find out how an adversary could still exploit them. In this regard, researchers have proposed various attacks on air-gapped systems, the latest of which includes the SATAn attack.
Physical destruction of data storage – Things to consider
The initial step when considering data destruction is basically the same first step in data protection: Take time to understand what kind of data you’re working with. Policy around data classification is going to dictate certain aspects of how that data must be treated
