GWBTec provides secure data erasure for businesses and individuals who want information properly removed from supported storage devices before equipment is reused, sold, recycled or disposed of.
Deleting files makes them disappear from normal view. But that doesn't necessarily mean the information itself has been securely removed from the storage device.
Secure data erasure takes a more controlled approach. We assess the type of storage involved and use an appropriate erasure method to securely remove the information from supported devices.
For organisations, securely erasing a device is only part of the process. Keeping a record that it happened can also be important.
Following successful secure erasure, GWBTec can provide a Certificate of Data Erasure confirming that the device has been processed.
Where appropriate, identifying information about the processed device can be recorded so the certificate can be linked back to the relevant equipment.
Different types of storage work in different ways. That's why we don't assume the same erasure method is appropriate for every device.
A storage device that cannot be accessed normally may not be suitable for software-based secure erasure. If a device can't be securely erased using an appropriate method, we'll explain the available options.

Not necessarily. Deleting files generally removes them from normal view but doesn't always securely remove the underlying information.
Where certification is required and secure erasure has been successfully completed, GWBTec can provide a Certificate of Data Erasure.
Yes, where the device supports an appropriate secure erasure method.
If the device cannot be securely erased in a way we can verify, we won't pretend otherwise. We'll explain the alternatives.
