Advanced Sanitisation for UK Government Compliance
When working with highly sensitive data, basic wiping isn’t enough. Genesis supports the NCSC Enhanced Erase standard — formerly known as CESG — giving ITADs, brokers, and enterprise IT teams the confidence that every drive is sanitised to the rigorous requirements set by the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre.
What Is NCSC Enhanced Erase?
The NCSC (National Cyber Security Centre) Enhanced Erase standard defines strict methods for data sanitisation on magnetic and solid-state storage. This framework goes beyond simple overwrites by using advanced, verified techniques to ensure that data cannot be recovered — even with laboratory-level forensic tools.
This method was formerly governed by CESG, the UK government’s authority for information assurance, and remains an important benchmark for compliance across defence, public sector, and regulated industries.
