Provable Data Erasure. Cryptographically Verified.

ZeroTrace is a secure, auditable toolkit for erasing storage devices. It generates tamper-proof certificates to provide definitive proof of data destruction for enterprise, forensic and privacy-conscious users.

A Toolkit Built for Trust and Integration

ZeroTrace isn't just an erasure tool; it's a complete attestation system.

Provable Erasure

Generates cryptographic evidence and tamper-evident certificates after every wipe.

Modular & Pluggable

Features pluggable erase engines (ATA Secure Erase, Overwrite, Crypto) and reporting modules.

Auditable & Compliant

Meets regulatory needs with robust logging, signed certificates and QR verification.

Safe & Correct

Includes safe device detection, interactive confirmations and a simulation mode to prevent errors.

The Erasure & Attestation Workflow

From command to certificate, every step is logged and verified.

Signed, Sealed and Delivered

The final artifact is more than a log file. It's a portable, verifiable and tamper-proof JSON or PDF document containing all critical metadata about the erasure event.

Device model, serial number and size
Erasure method, passes and pattern used
Cryptographic hashes of pre/post-wipe data
Timestamps, duration and throughput metrics
ED25519 signature to detect any tampering

Built for Integration

ZeroTrace is command-line-first and designed to be a building block in larger workflows. Integrate it into asset management systems, CI/CD pipelines or forensic toolchains with its CLI, REST API and library bindings.
