Every erasure generates a detailed PDF certificate - device info, erasure method, timestamps, verification results, and a unique certificate ID. Supports NIST 800-88 Clear & Purge, HMG IS5, and DoD 5220.22-M with pre and post verification via random data sampling. Hardware-level NVMe sanitize and ATA secure erase included. License-controlled per-erasure to prevent unauthorised use.
DSU - Erasure conforms to NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 (September 2025) for both Clear and Purge sanitization methods across SATA HDDs, SATA SSDs, and NVMe SSDs. Every erasure produces a certificate of sanitization aligned with SP 800-88r2 Appendix C, with post-erase verification that exceeds the standard's minimum requirements.

From CPU stress tests and RAM checks to camera facial-recognition capture and motherboard health sub-checks - each test returns pass/fail with detailed notes. Results feed directly into the submission report. Remote-triggerable from the Portal: kick off automated tests across an entire floor — only stepping in when a test needs hands-on interaction.
Deploy Windows 10, Windows 11, or Ubuntu LTS directly from the USB. DSU handles UEFI partitioning, boot manager setup, and unattended configuration - keyboard, timezone, locale, everything. Wipe a drive and deploy a fresh OS in one continuous workflow without ever switching tools.

Verification
Data you can trust.
A DSU Certified report guarantees that the device’s specifications and hardware test results are accurate, verified, and untampered.
All information is captured directly from the hardware using the DSU - Profiler, ensuring every detail - from system components to diagnostic outcomes - reflects the device exactly as tested. Automated pipelines remove manual error and deliver consistent, reliable results.
Certified devices include anti-tamper safeguards: any manual modification to specifications or hardware test results will automatically revoke the DSU Certified status. A unique online certificate is generated for independent verification.
Every specification is real, every test is genuine, and every report is backed by transparent, verifiable data.
