Three Tiers of Data Destruction
Software Sanitization (Clear)
NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2-aligned logical sanitization for compatible, functioning media, with verification based on project scope.
Degaussing (Purge)
Magnetic field destroys all data. Drive becomes permanently inoperable. Best for high-security needs.
Physical Destruction (Destroy)
Approved end-of-life drives are physically destroyed and documented. EverTrade does not offer witnessed destruction or video proof.
