Volatile Memory
The volatile memory in the instrument does not have battery backup. It loses its con-
tents when power is removed from the instrument. The volatile memory is not a secur-
ity concern.
Removing power from this memory meets the memory sanitization requirements speci-
fied in the "Clearing and Sanitization Matrix" in Section 5.2.5.5.5 of the ISFO Process
Manual for the Certification and Accreditation of Classified Systems under the NIS-
POM.
