Erased and documented

We erase every data carrier for you with Blancco, by default to NIST SP 800-88. What cannot be erased, we destroy physically and document per device.

Erasure with a record

Your old devices arrive sealed in Dottikon. There we usually erase them within three days with Blancco. Every erasure ends with a certificate for you, which we archive in an audit-proof way.

Blancco to NIST
We erase with Blancco, where we are an ITAD Silver Partner. The standard is NIST SP 800-88, on request DoD 5220.22-M.
Certificate per data carrier
You receive an erasure certificate for every device and every data carrier. On request we add an Excel overview.
Physical destruction
We remove data carriers that cannot be erased, assign them to the original device and destroy them physically to ISO/IEC 21964. For flash memory we deliberately destroy the NAND chips mechanically.

How the erasure works

Collect under seal
We pack your devices on site in sealed boxes. Our own fleet drives to Dottikon without a stop.
Check receipt
We check the seals and match every scan against the capture on site.
Erase with Blancco
We usually erase within three days. Blancco also runs all function tests, for example for battery, data carrier and RAM.
Destroy if needed
We remove data carriers that cannot be erased and destroy them physically to ISO/IEC 21964.
Receive proof
You receive the erasure certificates and destruction records. The erasure certificate is usually available within five working days.

Documented and auditable

Every step leaves proof that you can check.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022

The scope of our ISMS covers data erasure.

Blancco Silver Partner

We work with Blancco as an ITAD Silver Partner.

Audit-proof archiving

We archive all erasure logs in an audit-proof way.

Frequently asked questions

Which erasure standards do you use?

We erase with Blancco to NIST SP 800-88 by default, on request to DoD 5220.22-M.

What happens to data carriers that cannot be erased?

We remove them, assign them to their original device and destroy them physically to ISO/IEC 21964. With flash storage we destroy the NAND chips mechanically.

What proof do we receive?

You receive a certificate per device and data carrier, on request with an Excel overview. The destruction records and the final report (audit report) come on top.

How fast do you erase?

We usually erase within three days of receipt. The erasure certificate is usually available within five working days.

Can we hold back the erasure?

Yes, gladly. On request we keep the devices in quarantine and agree the duration with you. Only you can release them.
