Data Erasure
nesevo is Certified Business Partner of Certus
Data erasure by nesevo. We are a Certified Business Partner of Certus, the creator of the world‘s leading software solution for secure data erasure called Certus Erasure.
We offer wiping of all types of storage devices, be it server disks, storage arrays, HDDs or SSDs in PCs, laptops, tablets and even the internal memory of mobile phones. The service includes a certificate to document the successful deletion of all data on a device, with a reference to the part numbers and serial numbers of the disks as well as the devices they were installed in.
Certus Erasure includes numerous overwrite patterns that we can choose from. Although from a technical standpoint, the one-time overwrite is sufficient and 100% secure, we can also offer wiping according to patterns that use multiple overwrite runs, if the customer wishes so (e.g. due to internal company policies). We recommend Standard Overwrite for HDDs and SATA Secure Erase for SSDs, though, because these patterns are, while being secure and standards-compliant, the fastest by far, which results in significant energy saving and thus is much more environment-friendly than multi-pass patterns.
The solution is certified to comply with all important international standards, including GDPR (EU), NIST (US), NCSC, ADISA and Common Criteria. Please see https://www.certus.software/en/ for full specifications.

Questions
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between data erasure and disk shredding?
Data erasure uses certified software to overwrite all data on a drive so it cannot be recovered — the drive remains physically intact and can be reused or resold. Disk shredding physically destroys the drive, making data recovery impossible but also ending the hardware's lifecycle. nesevo offers both: software erasure with Certus for drives that pass the process, and on-site physical shredding for drives that don't.
Is software-based data erasure really secure?
Yes — when performed with certified software and to the right standard. nesevo uses Certus Erasure, certified to NIST SP 800-88 Rev.1, the internationally recognised benchmark for secure data sanitisation. A single overwrite pass is technically sufficient and 100% secure. We can also apply multi-pass overwrite patterns if your internal policies require it.
What types of storage devices can nesevo erase?
nesevo can wipe all common storage types: server hard drives and SSDs, storage arrays, HDDs and SSDs in PCs, laptops and tablets, and even the internal memory of mobile phones. Each erasure comes with a certificate referencing the device's part numbers and serial numbers for full audit traceability.
Do I receive documentation after the erasure?
Yes. Every erasure job includes a detailed certificate documenting the successful deletion of all data, including part numbers and serial numbers of the drives and the devices they were installed in. This audit trail is essential for GDPR compliance and internal data governance requirements.
Can nesevo perform data erasure on-site at our location?
Yes. nesevo offers both on-site erasure at your premises and in-house erasure at our facilities. On-site erasure means your drives never leave your building — ideal for highly sensitive environments. Contact us to discuss which option fits your security requirements best.
