The WipeDrive Enterprise software removes the encryption key prior to the erasure and then overwrites the drive with a NIST compliant pattern. The data sanitization is then verified through the entire drive. The encryption key is removed again, and the tamper-proof audit trail is saved to any addressable location the user prefers. The implementation of the ATA’s Secure Erase and Sanitize Device commands is dependent on individual drive manufacturer’s implementation but technological advances have found most manufacturers are conforming to the new standard. It is recommended that drive specifications are reviewed prior to performing an overwrite. Kelly Holmes, Western North America Sales Manager The software then verifies 10% of the media to ensure a successful wipe. WipeDrive has added support for the NIST 800-88r1 Purge/Clear on said drives and can reach purge/clear status by utilizing Firmware-based commands, 'sanitize disk' and 'secure-erase', after the DCO or HPA have been removed. In 2014, NIST updated their guidelines to include sanitizing newer media types such as ATA, NVMe, and SCSI (both HDD and SSD).

The new release of WipeDrive Enterprise incorporates the NIST-recommended overwrite patterns with a patent-pending encryption key removal and verification process. WhiteCanyon Software, manufacturer of WipeDrive Enterprise - the highest certified data sanitization in the world, today announced compliance with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-88r-1 + 3 pass guidelines for firmware-based erasure of hard drives, NVMe drives and solid-state drives.
