Managing IT assets efficiently while ensuring data security, regulatory compliance, and environmental responsibility is more crucial than ever. Businesses face challenges when retiring outdated equipment, and the need for a streamlined, secure, and eco-friendly approach has never been greater. OceanTech, in collaboration with WipeOS, introduces Trident ITAD, a comprehensive solution designed to address these needs through three essential steps: Discover, Secure, and Reclaim.

Discover: Plan with Precision

Understanding your IT assets is the foundation of a successful IT asset disposition (ITAD) strategy. The Discover phase ensures meticulous planning, inventory management, and risk assessment to minimize disruptions and maximize efficiency.

• Inventory Documentation: Create a detailed catalog of all IT assets, including hardware, software licenses, and data dependencies.

• Risk Prioritization: Identify and prioritize systems containing sensitive or critical data to ensure secure handling.

• Comprehensive Asset Assessment: Evaluate the condition and specifications of assets, creating a roadmap for secure disposition while maintaining a clear chain of custody.

Secure: Protect What Matters Most

Data security is paramount when decommissioning IT assets. The Secure phase ensures the highest level of protection through certified methods that safeguard sensitive information while maintaining compliance.

• Collection & Transportation: Secure collection and transportation processes using locked containers, tamper-evident seals, and GPS tracking to maintain the chain of custody.

• Chain of Custody: Implementing robust documentation to track the movement of assets from decommissioning to final disposition.

• Certified Data Destruction: Using industry-leading methods such as overwriting, degaussing, and physical destruction to ensure complete and irreversible data erasure.

• Regulatory Compliance: Providing certificates of data destruction to meet standards such as NIST 800-88, GDPR, HIPAA, and R2 Responsible Recycling certifications.

Reclaim: Maximize Asset Value

Rather than treating IT asset disposition as a loss, Trident transforms it into a strategic opportunity by recovering value from retired equipment through resale, refurbishment, or responsible recycling.

• Asset Valuation: Assess the condition of IT assets to determine their best use—whether resale, refurbishment, or recycling.

• Remarketing & Recycling: Functional equipment is refurbished and resold, while obsolete items are processed through environmentally responsible recycling channels.

• Detailed Reporting & Compliance: Providing documentation to demonstrate compliance and support corporate social responsibility initiatives.
