Our Data Erasure Process
Assets Collection
ITPickup facilitates the process of picking up computers, servers, laptops, hard drives, SSDs, and other decommissioned IT equipment from the customers' premises and assumes responsibility for custody during the pickup, transportation, and subsequent processing.
Identification of Assets
The serial number, asset, manufacturer information, model number, and inventory numbers help manage collected equipment in the system, thus ensuring that each piece of equipment is managed according to its history of processing.
Media Assessment
The technology type, capacity, interface, condition, and sanitization requirements help in assessment of each media, thus ensuring proper selection of the processing technique before the process is carried out and preventing any mismanagement of the media.
Data Erasure
Data erasure is done through the use of sanitizing software, which helps in erasing all the data from the compatible media in such a way that no one can recover the data or access the business documents on the hard drive.
Verification
Completed processes are verified against certain criteria to ensure that processing has been done successfully. Unsuccessful results are flagged prior to disposal of the equipment.
Certificates
In case the sanitization is done successfully, a certificate of data destruction could act as proof of sanitization in order to make sure that the equipment is traced to its output and helps in the purposes of compliance, and also helps in the disposal of the asset.
Reuse / Remarketing / Recycling
After the equipment has undergone the process of cleaning, it is then resold, repurposed, or recycled, helping in the recovery of the residual value, extending the life cycle of the product, and avoiding the generation of e-waste.
Data Erasure Certificate & Audit Report
ITPickup offers a comprehensive data erasure certificate and audit report. The documents contain all the required information about the asset, process of erasure, verification process and so forth.

Benefits of Professional Data Erasure
Professional erasure of data guarantees that all sensitive data will be deleted prior to reuse, resale, or recycling of the device. The process of sanitization, which is verified, reduces the risk of data leaks, ensures compliance with rules, supports asset disposition control, documentation, and allows recovering the value of the equipment without compromising the confidential data.

FAQ's
What are the tools that Itpickup uses for data erasure?
ItPickup uses Blancco for secure data erasure on various types of electronic devices. This data erasure software uses standards that are called DoD 5220.22-M and NIST 800-88 Standard. Data erasure with Blancco ensures that your sensitive data is permanently deleted from the storage drives with no possibility of recovery.
Can I destroy the data on my own?
Yes, you can destroy the data on your own but you would have to ensure no data traces remain on the devices. Eliminating the drive physically or formatting it does not ensure complete erasure of data. Data erasure software uses sophisticated methods to erase data present on the device permanently.
How long should it take to finish a disk wipe?
Well, that would depend on the size of the drive, the amount of data stored in the drive and the method being used for wiping the disk. A good data erasure software can complete the data erasure request within several minutes or even several hours.
How can I verify data erasure?
You can expect complete and thorough data erasure and removal through our comprehensive data erasure procedure. After the data erasure process is completed, we will provide you with a detailed report which will serve as a proof for all the files that have been deleted through our services.
What types of devices can I give you for erasure of data?
We provide data erasure services for various types of electronic storage devices. Devices such as USB drives, SSDs, HDDs, digital card memories, micro drives, flash based storage media drives, et cetera are applicable for our data erasure services. We also provide secure onsite data erasure at your physical location.
Does ItPickup provide data erasure certificate?
Our data erasure services are authorized by KSPCB as well as CPCB. ItPickup performs certified data erasure on your devices with 100 percent permanent data removal and at the completion of the data erasure process, we provide a certificate as proof of our honest and sincere services.
