There is no document instructing users that USB devices be powered off for at least 60 seconds prior to being connected to an IS.
Description
Discussion Text
Because USB devices that contain only volatile memory are designed to withstand minor fluctuations in power they contain some means of maintaining memory for short power interruptions. Users need to ensure that USB devices remain without power for at least 60 seconds when disconnecting them from one IS, and connecting to a different IS to make sure enough time passes for all power to dissipate and the memory erased.
The IAO will ensure that the SFUG or an equivalent document requires that all USB devices be powered off for at least 60 seconds prior to being connected to an IS.
