Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the best option for erasing my data?
If you’re wiping personal data or standard office files, a single-pass erasure is usually enough. For sensitive info like financial records or confidential business data, go with multi-pass (up to 7 overwrites) for extra security.
How long will it take to erase my drive?
For a standard laptop or desktop, single-pass erasure usually takes 30 minutes to 1 hour. Multi-pass erasure can take several hours depending on drive size. If you’re on a deadline, single-pass is faster but less secure.
Is erasing data really necessary if I’ve deleted my files?
Yes. Deleting just hides files from view, but they can still be recovered with basic software. If you’re selling, donating, or disposing of a device, erasing ensures no one can recover your data.
Will I get proof that my data is gone?
Yes. We provide a certificate of data destruction for every device. This is essential for businesses to meet data protection regulations like GDPR.
Can I reuse my devices after data erasure?
Absolutely. Erasing doesn’t harm the device. You can reinstall your operating system and reuse it, or resell it knowing your data is 100% secure.
Is on-site data erasure more secure than off-site?
Yes, both are secure when handled by certified professionals using approved methods.
On-site erasure means we come to you, and your devices never leave your premises. This gives you full control and immediate oversight, which is ideal if you have strict data handling policies or highly sensitive information.
Off-site erasure happens at our secure facilities, following the same strict protocols and certifications. It’s a good option if you prefer a hassle-free process without the need to manage the erasure on-site.
Which should you choose?
It depends on your security policies and convenience. If keeping devices on-site is critical, go with on-site erasure. If you want a simpler, hands-off solution, off-site erasure is just as secure.
