During the retirement phase of the PC life cycle, many companies dispose of PCs without properly removing confidential data. This is a serious concern, since the information on these hard disks can then be retrieved by unauthorized people.

Refurbit uses software which destroys data in accordance with the government CESG standards.

Many companies think that formatting a hard disk removes and destroys its data, when in fact this data  which can be highly confidential – can still be retrieved from these systems. With most operating systems, files that are deleted are not necessarily erased. In many cases, the only thing erased is the logical link to the file.

Our Secure Data Disposal tool is indifferent to the operating system on a hard disk. It can ensure that any critical data is permanently removed from a PC before it is disposed.

Whether a PC is being cascaded in an organization or being retired, IT organizations will benefit from the following features of our Secure Data Disposal tool:

Detects all drives and partitions (including hidden partitions)

Data, programs and any possible viruses will be destroyed on the PC before a new image is loaded

Sensitive and/or confidential information will be destroyed permanently

Refurbit provides an extremely competitively priced collection service leaving you with the appropriate waste transfer paperwork for your disposal records.

Any waste materials resulting from our refurbishment process are separated and sent for reclamation at companies in the UK and Europe who utilize some of the most advanced processing techniques.

Be 100% confident that all data will be removed from a hard drive before a cascade or disposal of the  system
