Wipe Drives Securely To Keep Data Safe

Securely Wiping Your Hard Drive Protects You from Data Theft

Simply deleting files or even formatting your drive doesn't mean the data is gone. It can still be recovered using freely-available software tools. Only by overwriting the data can you ensure it's permanently and securely erased. WipeDrive has been certified by the NSA as wiping software that makes data forensically unrecoverable.

WipeDrive's 3 Pass Wipe Completely Erases Your Hard Drive

For extra assurance your data is gone you can wipe hard drive data multiple times. WipeDrive provides several wipe patterns including the DoD 5220.22-M wipe pattern used by many branches of the U.S. Government.

WipeDrive allows corporations and government entities to permanently and securely erase data from hard drives, removable media, and mobile devices, providing a cost-effective, secure, and socially responsible way of recycling and retiring computer storage.

Wipe SSDs (Solid State Drives)

Need to wipe solid state drives? Since 2011, WipeDrive has been a market leader in comprehensively wiping SSD drives by removing security freeze locks to ensure there are no hidden or locked areas of the drive that are missed.

WipeDrive can wipe any SSD drive that is free from manufacturer defects.
