Scale Your Operation & Boost Productivity

Ziperase Command Center is network data erasure software that lets one operator erase laptops, desktops and servers in bulk and control the whole operation from one place. Each device connects to the Command Center server and is erased to NIST SP 800-88 R2 and IEEE 2883:2022, with a tamper-proof certificate for every device. Built for ITAD providers and enterprise IT teams.

  • 500+ Devices per Host
  • PXE Network Boot
  • Centralized Cloud Reporting
  • ERP & ITAM Integration

    Why Device-by-Device Erasure Breaks Down at Scale

    Laptops, desktops and servers arrive by the pallet from office refreshes, lease returns and data center decommissioning. When a machine needs its own operator to boot it, start the wipe and watch it finish, throughput is capped by how many hands are on the bench. Licenses held on USB keys or hardware dongles get lost between stations, and the whole line waits until they turn up. Each erasure report stays on the computer or stick that produced it, scattered across benches and shifts. If an auditor asks for proof that a specific serial number was sanitized, someone has to hunt down the right file and rebuild the record manually. Every extra step adds room for error, and at hundreds of devices a day, small slips become missing certificates, failed audits and stock that cannot be resold.

    What Centralized Erasure Changes for Your Operation

    • More Capacity, Same Staff: One operator wipes a whole floor of laptops, desktops and servers from a single host.
    • Uninterrupted Throughput: Licenses sit on the Command Center server and top up automatically from the Customer Portal, so benches always have what they need.
    • Audit-Ready Evidence: Each report lands in one central database, searchable by serial number and ready the moment an auditor asks.
    • Consistent, Repeatable Results: Erasure methods, settings and custom fields are configured once and applied to every connected device.
    • Room to Grow: New stations join the network through PXE boot and run an identical process, reporting and licensing from day one.

    Maximize Efficiency & Throughput

    Laptops, desktops and servers boot from the network and erase with no monitor, keyboard or mouse attached, so benches keep moving while technicians prepare the next batch. Each wipe can be started from the device itself or from Command Center.

    • Built-In Linux OS: Command Center runs on its own operating system, delivered in the same image as the software.
    • Single Install: One installation sets up the PXE server, report collation, licensing and remote control of erasure clients.
    • Minimal Operator Interaction: Workflows can run hardware tests and erasure automatically, leaving staff free to load more devices.

    Centralized Cloud Reporting & Management

    Sync all your Command Center deployments to the Ziperase Customer Portal for a unified view of your global erasure operations. Instant access to comprehensive reporting, detailed device information, and tamper-proof erasure certificates from every connected Command Center. Easily filter and search results, track license usage and assignments, and generate custom reports by date or other criteria.

    Flexible Data Capture & Detailed Reporting

    Configure custom workflows to gain total control and drive business growth. With a built-in database for storing and sorting reports and asset information, you can easily search and retrieve critical data with just a few clicks. Our “extra fields” feature captures crucial workflow details like client information and internal notes. Export every report in the format your auditors and systems need:

    • PDF: Erasure certificates as one multi-page file, or a zip with a separate file for each device.
    • CSV: One row per device, or one row per drive for systems with several drives.
    • JSON: Machine-readable reports for other systems, as a single file or one per device.

    Supported Devices & Deployment Requirements

    Command Center runs on a standard server and creates its own erasure network, with an internet connection optional.

    DevicesLaptops, desktops and servers with a 64-bit Intel-compatible processor and 2GB of RAM
    DrivesIDE, SATA, SAS, SCSI, NVMe and eMMC
    Host Processor64-bit Intel-compatible, 4 cores
    Host Memory & Storage8GB of RAM and 50GB of free storage
    Host NetworkEthernet connection to the isolated erasure subnet, plus an optional second connection to your corporate network or the internet
    Network BootPXE, selected from the BIOS or EFI menu
    Devices without PXEUSB or optical boot, then join over Wi-Fi or Ethernet
    How It Works

    Certified & Compliant Data Erasure

    All drives are erased using the firmware or overwrite technique that suits their type, with hidden areas removed first and a sample read back to confirm the result. Every device then receives a tamper-proof PDF certificate recording the erasure method, verification outcome and full system and storage details.

    • Certifications: ADISA Product Assurance Level 5 and Common Criteria EAL2
    • Standards: NIST SP 800-88 R2 and IEEE 2883:2022
    • Regulatory Frameworks: GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, FERPA and other national data protection laws

    • Array Erase: Remote monitoring and control of every Array server, with centralized reporting and a shared list of drive passwords.
    • Mobile Erase: Phone and tablet stations draw licenses from Command Center and upload each device report to it.
    • Autopilot Detection: Deploys through Command Center to check Windows devices for Autopilot enrollment.
    • Device Link for Macs and Chromebooks: Reports to the same Ziperase Customer Portal, so Mac and Chromebook records sit alongside your Command Center results.

    Ziperase Command Center FAQs

    Q: How many devices can Ziperase Command Center erase at the same time?

    A: More than 500 from one host. Devices boot over the erasure network, erase simultaneously, and can be monitored and controlled from Command Center.

    Q: What hardware do I need to run Ziperase Command Center?

    A: A server with a 64-bit Intel-compatible, 4-core processor, 8GB of RAM, 50GB of free storage and an Ethernet connection to the isolated erasure subnet. A second connection to your corporate network or the internet is optional. Each device being erased needs a 64-bit Intel-compatible processor and 2GB of RAM.

    Q: Does every device need a network connection to be erased by Ziperase Command Center?

    A: Yes, each device connects to the Command Center server over the erasure network. Devices without PXE boot from a USB stick or optical drive and join over Wi-Fi or Ethernet. An internet connection is optional.

    Q: Which data sanitization standards does Ziperase Command Center support?

    A: NIST SP 800-88 R2 and IEEE 2883:2022. The software holds ADISA Product Assurance Level 5 and Common Criteria EAL2 certification.

    Q: Can Ziperase Command Center manage Mac, Chromebook and mobile processing?

    A: Mobile processing, yes. Ziperase Mobile Erase stations connect to Command Center for licensing and reporting. Macs and Chromebooks are processed with Ziperase Device Link, which reports to the Ziperase Customer Portal, where Command Center results also sync.

    Q: How does Ziperase Command Center integrate with my ERP or ITAM system?

    A: Command Center integrates with the ITAD ERP platforms Makor ERP, RazorERP and IQ Reseller. For other systems, it offers a REST API, read-only database access and webhooks that send a notification when a new report is uploaded.

    Q: What report formats does Ziperase Command Center produce?

    A: PDF, CSV and JSON. PDF certificates come as one multi-page file or one file per device, CSV as one row per device or per drive, and JSON as a single file or one per device.

    Q: Does Ziperase Command Center need per-device licenses or dongles?

    A: Licenses are fully digital, with no dongles or hardware keys. They sit in a license store on the Command Center server and come from your Ziperase Customer Portal account, either online with automatic top-up or through an offline key exchange.
