Innovative Erasure Verification

Blancco Drive Verifier scans your drive and examines the bit patterns to confirm that the drive no longer contains any form of recoverable data.

Data Degaussing:

If you decide not to wipe a drive (for-reuse) and prefer the degaussing option then it is simply not enough to delete, reformat or overwrite sensitive information.

The only solution that guarantees 100% data destruction is to use a degausser this will render the drive totally inoperable but remain intact.

This process is achieved by passing the hard disk through a powerful magnetic field which in turn will rearrange the metallic particles completely removing any resemblance to the original data.
