Product Fact Sheet

DiskEraser

Adapted from nexGrēn’s patented technology used by the U.S. Department of Defense for the removal of “Secret” level information, DiskEraser is a data removal product designed for use by consumers and businesses. DiskEraser removes data from every file, leaving the drive and system completely clean of any information, enabling consumers to donate, recycle or dispose of their computers without the threat of identity theft.

The Problem
Identity theft is growing at an exponential rate.

• Identity theft affects nearly one in every 30 Americans;
• Almost 10 million Americans fell victim to identity theft in 2008;
• The cost of identity theft to U.S. corporations over the last five years is estimated at $60 billion.

Also, consumer electronics disposal is the fastest growing waste stream on the planet. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency:

• More than 65 million PCs and laptops are disposed of in the U.S. each year;
• More than 67 million PCs and laptops are stored in offices and homes today; and
• There will be more than 120 million end-of-life PCs and laptops in storage within the next two years.

How it Works
Solutions begin by addressing the critical issue of sensitive data on a device’s hard drive. Developed with patented and proprietary software technology, DiskEraser completely removes every file by writing random data on the entire hard drive. This leaves the drive and the system itself completely clean of any information.

DiskEraser’s technology is so powerful it is approved by the Department of Defense for removal of “Secret” level information. Once the drive is cleared of all data, it can be safely reused, donated or recycled.

Usage
Once loaded, easy-to-follow instructions appear on the computer screen and lead the user through the three critical steps for erasing the hard drive. Additionally, customer service is available 24/7 to answer questions or for trouble-shooting.

Pricing
DiskEraser’s technology has been adapted for commercial and individual use at a price of $19.99. DiskEraser is available for sale at www.nexgren.com or 800-459-5763.
