Review the policy to ensure a procedure is in place for a CMD system administrator to perform a Wipe command on all new or reissued CMDs (e.g., reset to factory configuration), reload system software or updates, and load a DoD compliant security policy on the CMD before issuing it to DoD personnel and placing the device on a DoD network.

Verify required procedures are followed. If required procedures are not followed, this is a finding.
