Secure Data Erasure, Certified Recovery, and Sustainable IT Solutions

At We Buy Used IT Equipment, protecting your data and maximizing asset value go hand-in-hand. That’s why we developed the Phoenix Certified™ Process — a next-generation system designed to securely erase sensitive data, restore storage media, and ensure full compliance with today’s strictest international standards.

Inspired by the mythical phoenix rising from the ashes, our process breathes new life into IT assets while completely eliminating any trace of previous data. Phoenix Certified™ stands as a symbol of trust, security, sustainability, and our unwavering commitment to excellence.

How the Phoenix Certified™ Process Works

1. Complete Data Erasure
Every device that comes through our facility undergoes a multi-stage, certified data erasure process. Using industry-leading degaussing and sanitization technology, we guarantee total data destruction—making recovery impossible.
We meet or exceed top compliance frameworks, including:

  • NIST 800-88 Guidelines

  • National Industrial Security Program (NISP) Requirements
    Whether it’s LTO tapes, enterprise drives, or medical storage devices, our methods provide full peace of mind with permanent data removal.

2. Magnetic Degaussing
Next, we use powerful magnetic degaussing to blank storage media at a fundamental level. This process:

  • Permanently destroys all stored information

  • Ensures full compliance with HIPAA, GDPR, and other regulations

  • Restores tapes and drives to optimal recording conditions
    It’s not just about wiping data — it’s about giving IT assets a second life, securely.
