RE: DOD wipe of disks in a virtual environment.

Larry,

You cannot prove that something is impossible. Only that it's possible.
Just because you can't prove the latter does not resolve to the former.
Unless it's Thursday. Oh @#$% it is!

'zactly. It doesn't matter that it would be impossible to get the data back
without a fabnabulously large amount of work and at an extreme cost. If you
can't prove it's impossible, it's possible.

Darryl,

John Lennon once said "Perception is 99% of reality". Arguing whether
or not SLS scrambles the data around enough after deleting the network
storage space is effective enough, or even better, will get no where
with someone who wants to be able to tell his auditors that "yes, the
data wipe met DoD specifications".
