Every wipe maps to a NIST 800-88 outcome, and every job produces a chain-of-custody report.

| NVMe Crypto / Block / Overwrite Purge | PURGE | Purge |
| ATA Enhanced Secure Erase | PURGE | Purge |
| ATA Secure Erase / NVMe Format / nwipe | CLEAR | Clear |

PHI on decommissioned media is destroyed and recorded per device.
Fits asset-disposal and media-sanitisation controls with repeatable reporting.
Each run is tied to a Chain of Custody ID and captures drive model, serial, per-drive method, certification, and final status. The report is the evidence — hand it to your auditor as-is.
Your Certificates of Destruction are issued by your own organisation — the data controller responsible for the assets — and carry your company's name, registration number, and address. tScrub is the tool that produces the item-level evidence: per-drive serials, wipe method, SMART before/after, and a tamper-evident record traceable by Certificate ID.
