Ensure complete data erasure with the Certus Erasure Verification Tool. Our verification tool scans your drive and analyzes the bit patterns written by the erasure software to confirm that no recoverable data remains. 

As demand for erasure verification increases within companies and industry standards, we developed the Certus Erasure Verification tool. This ensures your company meets all necessary requirements and gives you confidence that your devices are thoroughly erased.

The Certus Erasure Verification Tool (CEVT) is used to check if a storage device, like a hard drive, has been properly wiped clean of all data. It does this by comparing the data on the drive to a known pattern. If there’s any difference, the tool identifies it as leftover data that wasn’t fully erased.

CEVT has support for secure boot, so it will also work on computers that have that feature enabled. This is important to keep the boot process safe. Plus, it supports network booting (PXE) via a USB network adapter, so you can be flexible in your deployment options.

The tool generates tamper-proof verification reports that are digitally signed and can be saved offline on an external USB drive or an FTP server. This ensures that verification results are secure and easily accessible for audit and compliance purposes.

Drives with random data cannot be verified because random data doesn’t follow a predictable pattern – it’s inherently unpredictable. To make the drive verifiable with the Erasure Verification Tool, the last step of the erasure process must involve writing known, predictable data. This step is important for ensuring that the drive can be verified correctly after the erasure.
