According to the data security lifecycle model, the last phase is Data Destruction, which aims at guaranteeing that data contained in a given support is erased and destroyed in a way that renders it completely irrecoverable by any means (see ISC2 Study Guide, chapter 5, module 1, under Data Handling). Archival refers to the process whereby an organization creates a long-term data archive for compliance, storage reduction or business intelligence.
