Which path fits depends on whether the drive is being reused or retired for good.
For drives being redeployed, resold, or returned under a lease, a NIST 800-88 compliant wipe overwrites every sector so the data is unrecoverable, without destroying a drive that still has useful life left.
Each wipe is confirmed complete, not just kicked off and trusted.
Every drive's make, model, and serial number is recorded against the wipe.
For drives that are failed, end of life, or where policy requires physical destruction regardless of condition, we destroy to the DoD 5220.22-M standard so the media cannot be reconstructed by any means.
Media is destroyed to a standard that rules out any recovery attempt.
A signed Certificate of Destruction is issued for every device, for your records.
On-site collection or bring devices to us, whichever fits your workflow.
Every device is logged before anything is wiped or destroyed.
NIST 800-88 wipe or DoD 5220.22-M destruction, based on the device and your policy.
You get documentation for every device, ready for an audit or compliance file.
Tell us what you're retiring and we'll recommend the right path.
