SECURE WIPE

This utility provides a way to sterilize a hard drive that contains classified or sensitive information. It also gives you a way to recondition drives for recommission and recycling.

And there is no limit to the number of drives you can sterilize, as Secure Wipe can be used over and over again making it incredible value for money!

There are three levels of security available, with the more thorough methods taking more time.

Short Secure Wipe – This will over-write the data twice, which is sufficient to obscure it from anyone without access to a sophisticated

data recovery laboratory.

Long Secure Wipe – The data will be over-written six times, which will prevent its recovery by techniques available in the private sector.

Long Wipe with Format – This option makes a total of seven passes: six over-writes followed by a pass that does a low-level format of the drive, and meets the most stringent national security requirements for declassifying a drive.

Entire/Partial – Any of the choices above can be applied to all or part of a drive. If Partial Drive is selected, you will enter the start and ending cylinder and head.

 

Screen – Secure Wipe

These options will take time based on the type of system, memory and HD size. We do recommend using the first option when you know you are keeping the HD. On the other hand, if you are planning to donate or sell your computer or HD, use the third option.

Before the Secure Wipe operation begins, a warning will appear to let you know that the data on the drive is about to be destroyed. Press Y to continue or N to abort.

With Secure Wipe you can do a true factory low-level format on any drive type, regardless of the size, make or model, even SCSI and IDE drives. Also if track Zero is damaged it will relocate track zero and fix those drives.

The difference between Secure Wipe's low-level format and other diagnostics low-level format is;

1.  Other diagnostics use a bios call to perform there low level format routine. This routine is the reason why drive manufacturers print on the side of the drives (DO NOT PERFORM A LOW LEVEL FORMAT. SEND BACK TO MANUFACTURER)

2.  Bios low-level formats only have the capability to get rid of the indexing system. The information can still be recovered. So for security purposes this is not good. Not to mention that the old registries are still on the drive. This is what will cause the drive to crash again.

3. Secure Wipe's low-level format is a factory style low-level format. Micro Scope can first do a secure wipe of the drive by writing zeros to the entire drive not being limited to any partitions that other utility cannot see.

4. Then to reinitialize the drive back to the factory specifications. Micro-Scope will communicate with the drives command Register where the information exist to bring the drive back to the factory specs and if there is a virus on track zero. Micro-Scope will relocate track zero.

The safe and secure disk drive is a sterilized drive, and Secure Wipe provides simple but complete drive cleaning to the highest security standards. Secure Wipe is a certified DOD 5220.22-M standard.

5.  You only pay a one of cost - and can use it on as many drives as you like!

NOSPIN Excellence Award"In the service business, time is money. The Micro2000 Universal Diagnostic Toolkit is worth its weight in gold for any service company. The cost of the product is quickly recovered because of faster turn around time when fixing problem systems. The product also helps control business costs simply because technicians are more accurately diagnosing what parts they require for system repairs." Compunotes
