Appendix D. Decommissioning a YOMOVA
When a YOMOVA or any of its accessories is at the end of its life, it must not be simply thrown
away, given away or sold it. Remember that:
• security awareness requires erasing cryptographic components securely and completely
• sustainability requires recycling as many components as possible
• environmental awareness requires disposing of hazardous materials professionally
Return the YOMOVA to your vendor for decommissioning.
Step by step
1. Inspect the terminal for completeness, signs of intrusion and tampering, as explained under
Security recommendations, on page 17.
If you find any evidence of tampering, report the problem to Worldline and keep the
terminal available for possible forensic investigation.
2. If you do not find any evidence of tampering, dispose of the terminal following local rules and
regulations for disposal of electronic equipment, such as WEEE. Make sure that the person
or organisation responsible effectively destroys the terminal and its components.
3. Log the physical disposal of the terminal in the assets register.
