Preface
This document helps customers with data security concerns to sanitize or remove memory devices from the DSA8300
Digital Serial Analyzer and its related sampling modules and module accessories.
The DSA8300 has data storage (memory) devices and data output devices (USB ports). Some of the modules have memory
devices. These instructions tell how to clear or sanitize the memory devices and disable the data output devices. The
instructions also tell how to declassify an instrument that is not functioning.
Reference The procedures in this document are written to meet the requirements specified in:
NISPOM, DoD 5220.22–M, Chapter 8
ISFO Process Manual for Certification & Accreditation of Classified Systems under NISPOM
Products The following Tektronix products are covered by this document:
DSA8300 Digital Serial Analyzer
80A00 series Accessory plug-in modules
80C00 series Optical plug-in sampling modules
80E00 series Electrical plug-in sampling modules
80N01 series electrical sampler extender
80X00 series electrical sampler extenders
82A00 series Phase Reference sampling modules

Preface
Terms The following terms may be used in this document:
Clear. This removes data on media/memory before reusing it in a secured area. All reusable memory is cleared to
deny access to previously stored information by standard means of access.
Erase. This is equivalent to clear.
Instrument Declassification. A term that refers to procedures that must be undertaken before an instrument is
removed from a secure environment. Declassification procedures include memory sanitization and memory removal,
and sometimes both.
Media storage/data export device. Any of several devices that can be used to store or export data from the
instrument, such as a USB port.
Power off. Some instruments have a “Standby” mode, in which power is still supplied to the instrument. For the
purpose of clearing data, putting the instrument in Standby mode does not qualify as powering off. For these products,
you will need to either press a rear-panel OFF switch or remove the power source from the instrument.
Remove. This is a physical means to clear the data by removing the memory device from the instrument. Instructions
are available in the product Service Manual.
Sanitize. This eradicates the data from media/memory so that the data cannot be recovered by other means or
technology. This is typically used when the device will be moved (temporarily or permanently) from a secured
area to a non-secured area.
Scrub. This is equivalent to sanitize.
User Accessible. User is able to directly retrieve the memory device contents.
User-modifiable. The user can write to the memory device during normal instrument operation, using the instrument
interface or remote control.
Volatile memory. Data is lost when the instrument is powered off.
Nonvolatile memory. Data is retained when the instrument is powered off.

Clear and sanitize procedures
Memory devices
The following tables list the volatile and nonvolatile memory devices in the standard instrument and listed options.
Detailed procedures to clear or sanitize these devices, if any, are shown following each table.
Terminology The following terms are used in the tables in this section:
User data – Describes the type of information stored in the device. Refers to waveforms or other measurement data
representing signals connected to the instrument by users.
User settings – Describes the type of information stored in the device. Refers to instrument settings that can be
changed by the user.
Both – Describes the type of information stored in the device. It means that both user data and user settings are
stored in the device.
None – Describes the type of information stored in the device. It means that neither user data nor user settings
are stored in the device.
Directly – Describes how data is modified. It means that the user can modify the data.
Indirectly – Describes how data is modified. It means that the instrument system resources modify the data and that
the user cannot modify the data.
