Overview R&S®FPH 1 Overview Securing important information is crucial in many applications. Generally, highly secured environments do not allow any test equipment to leave the area unless it can be proven that no user information leaves with the test equipment, e.g. to be calibrated. "Regarding sanitization, the principal concern is ensuring that data is not unintentionally released" [1].

Security terms and definitions R&S®FPH 3 Security terms and definitions Terms defined in Guidelines for Media Sanitization NIST Special Publication 800-88 [1] ● Sanitization "Media sanitization refers to a process that renders access to target data on the media infeasible for a given level of effort.
Security terms and definitions R&S®FPH Media Media are types of non-volatile memory components. Media are user-accessible and retain data when you turn off power. In the context of this document, media types are Hard Disk Drives (HDD), Solid State Drives (SSD), Memory Cards, e.g. SD, microSD, CFast, etc., USB removable media, e.g. Pen Drives, Memory Sticks, Thumb Drives, etc. and similar technologies. Instrument Security Procedures 1178.8994.
Statement of Volatility R&S®FPH Non-Volatile Memory 4 Statement of Volatility The R&S FPH Spectrum Analyzer contains various memory components. See the subsequent sections for a detailed description regarding type, size, usage and location. Notes on memory sizes Due to the continuous development of memory components, the listed values of memory sizes may not represent the current, but the minimal configuration. 4.
Statement of Volatility R&S®FPH Media 4.3 Media Media are considered as non-volatile memory devices, as described in Security Terms and Definitions > Media.

Instrument Sanitization Procedure R&S®FPH Non-volatile Memory 5 Instrument Sanitization Procedure Firmware greater or equal 1.60 is required for the instrument declassification. 5.1 Volatile Memory Removing power 1. Turn off the R&S FPH. 2. Remove the battery. Leave the instrument powered off at least for 10 minutes to make sure that all volatile memory modules lose their contents. 5.2 Non-volatile Memory The Flash does not lose its contents when power is removed. It can contain user data.
Instrument Sanitization Procedure R&S®FPH Non-volatile Memory After a few seconds, the sanitizing procedure starts. The sanitizing procedure takes approximately 8 minutes, indicated by the message "Secure Formatting Flash, please wait!" on the screen. When completed, the instrument reboots automatically. Instrument Security Procedures 1178.8994.
R&S®FPH Validity of Instrument Calibration after Sanitization 6 Validity of Instrument Calibration after Sanitization The validity of the R&S FPH spectrum analyzer's calibration is maintained throughout the sanitization. Instrument Security Procedures 1178.8994.
