Control register / 05 layers

Connect policy to the field sequence.

Each layer keeps the approved security decision attached to the equipment.

  1. 01

    Scope control

    Define the media population, identifiers, exclusions, data owner, and inventory gaps before release.

  2. 02

    Decision control

    Connect media type, sensitivity, reuse intent, client policy, and the approved sanitization or destruction method.

  3. 03

    Custody control

    Name authorized handoffs, responsible parties, access expectations, and the exception path.

  4. 04

    Downstream control

    Confirm the receiving provider, release criteria, approved method, and required processing records.

  5. 05

    Record control

    Keep identifiers, custody events, processing results, exceptions, and review requirements together.

Media decision register

Make the media decision traceable before release.

The method follows the media, information sensitivity, reuse intent, client policy, and required validation. No single method fits every device.
