What do you call the process in which an attacker uses magnetic field over the digital media device to delete any previously stored data?

The process in which an attacker uses a magnetic field over a digital media device to delete any previously stored data is called disk degaussing. Degaussing involves applying a strong magnetic field to disrupt the magnetic domains on a storage device such as a hard drive, making the previously stored data irretrievable.
Disk degaussing is a process by which a strong magnetic field is applied to storage device, resulting in an entirely clean device of any previously stored data
