Software Wiping

Innovent uses the HMG Infosec Standard 5 Enhanced (3 pass, verify) erasure method to wipe all data bearing devices. This is the current recognised UK standard by Her Majesty’s Government. Overwriting involves three passes; each sector is overwritten first with 1s, then with 0s, and then with randomly generated 1s and 0s. It is impossible to retrieve data once devices have been overwritten using this method; the process is irreversible. Any devices that fail during wiping, or do not pass a health check, will be shredded to ensure total destruction of client data.
