Data erasure (or secure data wiping) is a software-based process that overwrites every bit of data on a storage device, making it unrecoverable. Unlike formatting or deleting files, certified erasure ensures data is destroyed beyond forensic recovery β while allowing the hardware to be reused or resold.
This is ideal for:
Corporate IT asset disposal
Device refurbishment and resale
Sustainable recycling practices
Meeting GDPR and data protection requirements
Collection: Devices are collected securely using Revive ITβs own vehicles
Wiping: We wipe data using certified tools like Blancco and Aiken Workbench
Verification: Each device is tested and verified as wiped
Certification: You receive a Data Destruction Certificate and asset report
If a drive fails erasure, it is flagged and physically destroyed (crushed or shredded).
Every erasure job includes:
β Data Destruction Certificate (DDC)
β Serial number log
β Waste Transfer Note (WTN)
β Hazardous Waste Note (if applicable)
Youβll be fully covered for data audits, GDPR checks, and IT asset reports.
We support:
SMEs and enterprise IT departments
NHS and healthcare providers
Schools, academies, and MATs
Local councils and government bodies
