Data destruction services

How safe is your data?

Don't let sensitive information get into the wrong hands. We offer a full suite of data destruction services to make sure your confidential information stays that way.

Data wiping made easy

We can perform data wiping in bulk, wiping hundreds of hard drives at a time. We'll also tailor a solution that balances your security needs with your cost and time constraints. Choose from two high security, certified data overwrite solutions:

• 3x overwrite: A secure data destruction method suitable for all but the most sensitive of data. Erased data can only be recovered by highly sophisticated data recovery methods.
• 7x overwrite: When it comes to medical records, government data, financial records and highly confidential commercial information, you need the most secure method of software data destruction available.
• Hard drive destruction: complete security

The most secure method of data destruction - and the only one that will work on faulty or corrupted hard drives - is physical destruction. We can certify all computers sanitised this way. We'll replace the hard drive with a generic model so your equipment's resale value isn't affected.

In North America, our data destruction adheres to the level required by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD 5220.22-M)

Introducing our custom-built online asset management system.

To get the most value from your IT assets you need to know what they're costing you, who's using them and where they are. Our online asset management system lets you do all this and more, and is provided as a value-added service at no extra cost to all our leasing clients.

How the system works

Our online asset management system puts comprehensive asset information right at your fingertips. You can view asset records, conduct asset management tasks and develop and export reports to a CSV or Excel file. You can also nominate specific individuals to have read-only or edit access.

It also gives you the option to bill by cost centre, which reduces administration and makes invoicing easier. What's more, it can help improve your asset management, so you'll have a clearer picture of your IT infrastructure, and a better understanding of what your technology is really costing you.

With our online asset management system, you can:

• View, edit, download and report on your assets, at your convenience in a secure online environment
• Improve your asset management with easy access to detailed asset information
• Easily adapt the system to meet your changing asset management needs
• Access a flexible platform for the configuration of user-defined asset reports and views
• Have the tools you need to effectively manage the end of lease process
• Save time and money managing your assets
• Simplify your data management and improve your asset tracking
• Assist with compliance

Sale and leaseback

Free up your finances with a sale and leaseback.

Over the years you may have invested heavily in IT equipment that has no appreciable value at the end of its life.

Many organisations have hundreds of thousands of dollars locked up in their existing IT infrastructure. Unfortunately, these dollars are not generating a positive return on investment.

A sale and leaseback can free up the capital embedded in your rapidly-depreciating IT assets so you can put it to work where your organisation needs it most.

Even if your fixed assets register is incomplete, we can perform an audit and valuation of your owned equipment. You can then choose which equipment you'd like us to buy and lease back to you.

You'll then have both your new and existing assets conveniently located in the one lease and asset management facility, with payments spread over the term of the lease - and you're left with real dollars to re-invest in other areas of your organisation.

Remarketing services

IT remarketing - turning your old IT equipment into revenue.
Thanks to our international IT equipment remarketing capabilities, we'll make sure you get maximum value from your old computer equipment. We'll sell your equipment via our network of dealers, resellers and end users, and share the profits after expenses with you. We get good market values and quick turnaround times on sales.

We also offer outright purchase of your old equipment. Contact us to find out more about buying your old computers.
