So in this lesson, we're going to talk about decommissioning, we're going to talk about disposal, and then we're going to compare the two. So when we talk about decommissioning, that's where we're taking a system out of service and we're likely going to, very important here, reuse it. And so you can see the process here. The decommissioning process actually starts at the beginning of our systems engineering work and our information system security engineering work. We got to determine the end of life of the system. That's where it starts. If we don't know when we need to decommission a system, it's really hard to determine what we're going to do with it. We then need to look at data. What data are we going to archive? Do we need to keep any? Are there regulatory requirements that we should be paying attention to that require us to keep data a…
