The DIDO-TE SHALL dispose of each preserved representation of Node state when the disposition conditions specified by the governing Test Definition are satisfied.
Disposition ends the retention of a preserved Node-state representation after satisfaction of its governing retention and disposition conditions.
The governing Test Definition identifies the event, time, decision, authorization, retention expiration, Evidence condition, or other condition that permits or requires disposition. The governing Test Procedure specifies the disposition method and required verification.
Disposition may destroy, erase, sanitize, archive, transfer, or otherwise remove the representation from active retention. The specified method reflects the sensitivity, storage medium, custody, legal obligations, Evidence obligations, and possibility of reconstruction.
Disposition includes every controlled copy, replica, temporary copy, recovery copy, and derivative identified by the governing Test Definition. Removing only the primary representation does not complete disposition when other governed copies remain.
The DIDO-TE preserves a disposition record after removing the state representation. That record demonstrates what was disposed of, why disposition was authorized, which method was used, and whether the DIDO-TE verified completion.
