Data Erasure FAQs

Counter to what you usually do. What is the best way in your opinion to make sure the data isn’t recoverable?

Make sure all the NAND chips are broken for destruction or use an erasure software that has been validated by Ontrack.

What is data erasure?

Data deletion, or data sanitisation, allows you to erase data that is no longer needed using methods that make it impossible to recreate the data. This is different from, for example, formatting a hard drive. It's also not the same as pressing "delete" to free up space or moving files to the trash. After these actions, data can be recovered using many different methods. Erasing data safely means that the areas on storage devices that contain unwanted data are overwritten or that the entire hard drive is overwritten. Overwriting is a process undertaken as part of secure erasure programs.

What is secure data erasure?

There are several methods that result in secure data deletion. The use of erasing software is recommended when the storage media is to be reused. For example, when re-selling IT equipment that already contains information. If the software is certified and approved, it can be used on spinning Hard Disk Drives (HDD), Solid State Drives (SSD), mobile phones and memory cards. The software then also deletes the hidden areas and remapped sectors. Deletion is done according to government standards such as NIST, DOD and many more. Physical destruction of hard drives is another option. You can either expose hard drives (HDD) and tapes to a strong magnetic field with a degausser or simply grind the entire device down to small fragments with a hard drive chewer (a so-called shredder).

What is the best way to dispose of hard drives?

Best practices can involve using data erasure software to securely overwrite data on HDDs and SSDs, including the hidden areas and remapped sectors. Deletion is done according to government standards such as NIST, DOD and many more. Physical destruction of hard drives can be done with a degausser that uses a powerful magnetic field, which erases not only the data but removes the servo tracks, rendering the media unusable. The most obvious destruction solution is to shred hard drives and other media into tiny, tiny pieces. This is called shredding or fragmentation. These machines smash a hard drive or SSD into pieces so small that the data cannot be recovered from the media or memory chips.
