dépoussiérage

Document dealing with information system (SI/IS) security.
"Contrôles anti-piégeages. Sur les SI particulièrement sensibles, il convient de mener des contrôles anti-piégeages réguliers, effectués par du personnel formé. Il peut être fait appel à des services spécialisés pour les opérations dites de « dépoussiérage »."
There are no other clues as to what this "dust removal" might involve, other than actual dust. The question is: presumably this is a figurative use, otherwise why say "dites" and why put it entre guillemets... Could it mean stuff like cleaning up hard disk space, defragmenting and performing similar chores?

Note from asker:
Merci... mais je ne suis pas (encore) 100% convaincu, car l'expression "dépoussiérage" est absente de cette page en français. Pourquoi n'aurait-on pas choisi le mot "nettoyage" dans ce cas? Je viens tout juste de faire deux recherches: "logiciel de nettoyage" et "logiciel de dépoussiérage"... les 2 existent... |

Note from asker:
umm... thanks for the quick response, but as ever a simple link to a google search using words in the question is of limited use, and presumably I have already done stuff like this myself! My close reading of the FR tells me that it is likely (although not 100%) that this is a figurative use... |

1) contrôles anti-piégeages réguliers
2) opérations dites de « dépoussiérage ».
two totally different kind of problems - "dépoussiérage" IS NOT a type of "contrôles anti-piégeages"
