Overview
The IRONCLAD Erasure Verication System is used with the
Garner HD-3WXL hard drive degausser to capture an image of
the erased hard drive and to collect information about the degauss
cycle. IRONCLAD preserves the image, degaussing cycle data, and
operator ID in an IRONCLAD erasure verication report creating a
complete proof-of-erasure le.
The IRONCLAD comes equipped with USB ports allowing the user
to download the CSV database onto a thumb drive. The exported
database can be viewed in any spreadsheet program or through a
text editor.
Use the included stylus and laptop drive adaptor
for ease of operation.
