CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) Exam-Style Practice Question 2026

CORRECT ANSWER
B. Sanitization

Why this is correct:
Data sanitization is the process of deliberately, permanently, and irreversibly removing or destroying data stored on a memory device to make it unrecoverable. "Securely wiping" a drive (using methods like overwriting with random data) is a core sanitization technique that allows the hardware to be safely recycled or reused without leaving sensitive information behind.

WHY THE OTHER ANSWERS ARE INCORRECT

A. Enumeration: This is a phase in a cyberattack or penetration test where the attacker gathers detailed information about a network (like user accounts or SNMP data).

C. Destruction: While destruction is a form of sanitization (like physical shredding or degaussing), "wiping" specifically implies a software-based approach to clear the data while leaving the physical drive intact.

D. Inventory: This is the administrative process of tracking assets. While you would inventory systems before decommissioning them, it doesn't describe the act of clearing the data.
