If your wiped drives are not passing compliance checks, it's essential to ensure that the data erasure methods and processes used meet the required standards. Here are some steps to consider:
After initiating the wiping process, it's important to allow both the wiping and subsequent verification stages to complete fully. Interrupting these processes can result in incomplete data erasure, leading to compliance failures. WIPERAPP provides real-time progress tracking and will indicate when the process is finished.
For a detailed guide on ensuring proper wiping and verification, refer to the Wiping Drive Data Documentation.
WIPERAPP generates detailed reports upon completion of the wiping process. These reports include key information such as device details, the wiping method used, and verification results. Reviewing these reports ensures that all necessary steps were followed and that the data erasure meets compliance requirements.
To validate the correctness of reports and ensure the data erasure meets compliance requirements, refer to the Validating Report Correctness Documentation.
WIPERAPP automatically writes a wiping confirmation into Sector ZERO (Master Boot Record) of the drive. This serves as official proof of data wipe and is useful for compliance and verification purposes. Utilizing this feature can provide additional assurance that the data erasure process was successful.
