 1.Disposal of Data.

 2.Clearing-overwriting-renders data in accessible by normal means.

 3.Purging-degaussing-renders media unusable by normal means 

 4.Destruction - Physical destruction Irreversible by all known technique.

 5.When physical destruction isn't possible, as in cloud environments,crypto-shredding provides the best means of sanitization.

 6.Crypto-shredding requires the encryption of the data with a strong,publicly known algorithm and the destruction of the encryption key.
