Data wiping

At ILL IT Solutions we provide three different levels of data wiping depending on the sensitivity of the data.

  • One Pass Zeros or One Pass Random – When using One Pass Zeros or One Pass Random standard, the number of passes is fixed and cannot be changed. When the write head passes through a sector, it writes only zeros or a series of random characters.
  • British HMG IS5 Baseline – Baseline method overwrites disk’s surface with just zeros 0x00. There is one final pass to verify random characters by reading
  • British HMG IS5 Enhanced – Enhanced method – the write head passes over each sector three times. The first time with zeros 0x00, second time with 0xFF and the third time with random characters. There is one final pass to verify random characters by reading.
