Certified data erasure and diagnostics software for the device lifecycle

Blackbelt Smartphone Defence, now operating as Blackbelt360, is a UK-based software house specializing in secure device lifecycle solutions. The company was a pioneer in the mobile erasure space, delivering the first fully auditable secure erase process for smartphones, and today serves retailers, carriers, trade-in companies, refurbishers, and IT asset disposition providers worldwide.

The Blackbelt360 platform combines certified data wiping, hardware diagnostics, grading, and pricing tools for mobile devices, computers, and wearables across iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS. Its DataWipe and Diagnostics products automate the testing and sanitization of refurbished devices at scale, while trade-in and retail modules connect that processing directly to resale and marketplace channels.

What differentiates Blackbelt is its compliance pedigree: erasure workflows are ADISA certified and aligned with NIST 800-88, R2v3, and GDPR requirements, producing tamper-evident audit reports for every device processed. That combination of certified sanitization and end-to-end lifecycle tooling lets organizations recover value from used devices without compromising the data security of their previous owners.
