# Media Management and Sanitization
One-sentence definition: Controls for the custody, transport, reuse, and end-of-life treatment of storage media.
## Key Facts
- Chain-of-custody logs for movement and storage of media.
- Secure transport: locked cases, couriers, tamper-evident seals.
- Sanitization method depends on media type and sensitivity.
- Document serials, methods, and witnesses for destruction.
- Cloud/virtual media require cryptographic erase procedures.
- **Verify:** check official (ISC)² CBK and current exam outline.
## Exam Relevance
- Select correct sanitization method for a given medium/classification.
**Mnemonic:** “Track, Treat, Terminate.”
## Mini Scenario
Q: SSD drives being repurposed—method?
A: Cryptographic erase or vendor secure erase, then verify.
## Revision Checklist
- List 3 transport controls.
- Map media type to sanitization method.
- Name two destruction record fields.
