Secure Data Destruction
A standard factory reset does not meet any recognized data destruction standard, and deleted files remain recoverable with off-the-shelf forensic tools. eWaste Solutions provides physical data destruction that meets NIST 800-88 and DOD 5220.22-M standards, with a Certificate of Destruction issued per device, by serial number, every time.
Deleted doesn't mean destroyed.
Deleting a file or reformatting a drive removes the file system pointer, not the underlying data. With standard forensic recovery tools, that data is often still fully recoverable. NIST 800-88, the federal standard for media sanitization, defines three tiers, Clear, Purge, and Destroy, and specifies exactly what qualifies at each level. eWaste Solutions performs physical destruction that satisfies the Destroy tier, the highest standard, for any device that has held sensitive data.
