This object is used to control how file data is handled when files are deleted. It is always readable. It is writable when FILE-SYSTEM-SECURITY-ACCESS-PASSWORD is the empty string or when a write to FILE-SYSTEM-SECURITY-ACCESS-PASSWORD with the current password has preceeded the write to the object. When FILE-SYSTEM-SECURITY-ACCESS-PASSWORD is not the empty string then this object becomes read-only after a successful write to it. FILE-SYSTEM-SECURITY-ACCESS-PASSWORD must then be written to again with the current password in order to make another write operation on the object possible. If the FILE-SYSTEM-SECURITY-ACCESS-PASSWORD is incorrectly set, this object becomes read-only until the password is correctly set. The logical settings for this object are: NonSecureFastErase - When a file is deleted, only the reference to it in the file system tables is removed. No file data is overwritten. This is the default setting. This is the setting when both bits in the collection are set to 0. SecureFastErase - File information is overwritten with identical, random character pattern when it is deleted. This is the setting when cEraseMode0 is set to 1 and cEraseMode1 is set to 0. SecureSanitizeErase - Secure, repetitive algorithm used to overwrite all deleted file information and remove any residual data persistence. A random character is written to all bytes of deleted sectors. Then the complement of that character and finally, another random character is written. This is the setting when cEraseMode0 is set to 0 and cEraseMode1 is set to 1. Note that an error will be returned for an attempt to set both bits of the collection to 1.
