Rackwipe: In-rack data erasure for data center decommissioning

Rackwipe erases every drive, switch, and configuration while the servers stay in the rack. No unplugging, no unstacking, no transport, and chain of custody locked from the first scan.

Wipe every drive, switch, and configuration without unplugging, unstacking, or relocating anything. Rackwipe automates secure erasure at rack scale, removes physical handling, shortens decommissioning timelines, and keeps chain of custody intact from start to finish.

  • Custody gaps expose organizations to breach liability
  • Slow, sequential processing inflates site time and cost
  • Physical handling leads to asset loss and inventory errors
  • Inconsistent wipe standards open compliance gaps

  • Server removal Manual: required. Rackwipe: none.
  • Parallel processing Manual: no. Rackwipe: yes.
  • Custody risk Manual: high. Rackwipe: locked from scan-in.
  • Audit trail Manual: partial. Rackwipe: automated, serial-level.
  • Erasure standard Manual: varies. Rackwipe: DoD 5220.22-M.

  • DoD 5220.22-M erasure Multi-pass, forensic-grade erasure with serialized audit trails.
  • Custody locked from start Inventory is captured at scan-in, with no handoffs and no gaps.
  • Compliance ready Supports GDPR, ISO 27001, NIST, and enterprise privacy mandates.
  • Automated audit logs Every drive, configuration, and switch logged at serial level with timestamps and outcomes.

How Rackwipe works

  1. Scan and inventory

    Every connected asset, serial, and configuration is captured at rack level, photographed, and linked to a serialized audit trail.

  2. Connect

    Rackwipe connects through management ports and controllers. Custody locks from step one.

  3. Erase

    DoD 5220.22-M erasure on every drive, configuration, and switch. No skips, no exceptions.

  4. Audit and report

    Serialized logs and compliance reports are generated automatically, ready for GDPR, ISO 27001, NIST, or your next audit.

Common questions

How does Rackwipe connect to servers?

Through management ports and controller interfaces. No drive removal is required.

Can it handle mixed hardware?

Yes. Rackwipe works across multi-vendor, multi-generation server environments.

Which standards does Rackwipe meet?

DoD 5220.22-M erasure, supporting GDPR, ISO 27001, and NIST requirements, with serialized audit logging.

How long does a rack take?

Full erasure and audit logging is usually complete within hours, depending on rack size.

Can the data feed our asset management systems?

Yes. Reports and serialized inventory export to ERP and IT asset management tools.
