In their own words
BCWipe Total WipeOut
BCWipe Total WipeOut erases complete storage devices before reuse, disposal, or redeployment. It covers HDDs, SSDs, NVMe, SSHDs, Mac drives, and removable media, including boot records, file-system structures, operating system files, and hidden HPA and DCO areas. The software detects drive types such as SSD and NVMe and applies drive-aware policies, including hardware erasure commands. It supports more than 14 erasure standards, with schemes including DoD and NIST. For organizations, Enterprise Console can wipe multiple computers over a network through a web browser and automate tasks for computer groups. It supports Administrator, Operator, and Auditor roles and creates tamper-proof PDF certificates with erasure details, verification results, and hardware diagnostics. Jetico says the product passed the ADISA Claims Test Process on sample HDDs and SSDs. The software is listed for Linux, macOS, and Windows; wiping from bootable media is OS-independent, but Windows is needed to create the bootable disk. The 21-day free trial includes one-pass wiping; licensed versions include the full set of wiping schemes.
