For security and compliance

Know what happened to every asset before, during and after retirement.

Egiss helps security and compliance teams connect asset recovery, data sanitisation, chain of custody, ITAD documentation and lifecycle governance across countries.

ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001 and ISO 45001, with certificate scope documented for the relevant service. R2v3 scope is documented separately for detailed use.

Security risk does not start at disposal.

End-of-life technology still carries data, access history, ownership questions and compliance obligations. If assets are poorly tracked during deployment and management, retirement becomes harder to prove.

Security and compliance teams need lifecycle evidence: where assets were, how they were recovered, how data was sanitised and how outcomes were documented.

Common pain points

What security and compliance teams need to control.

  • Asset ownership is unclear before recovery starts.
  • Country-level ITAD processes differ.
  • Chain-of-custody documentation is incomplete.
  • Data sanitisation evidence is inconsistent.
  • ITAD providers are disconnected from lifecycle data.
  • Recycling and remarketing routes are not documented clearly.
  • Certifications and supplier controls need scope verification.
  • Audit questions require data from several suppliers and systems.

How Egiss helps

Connect retirement evidence to lifecycle governance.

Egiss helps connect recovery, data sanitisation, chain-of-custody documentation, refurbishment, remarketing, recycling and reporting to the broader lifecycle model.

  • Asset recovery and take-back coordination.
  • Chain-of-custody documentation.
  • Data sanitisation and evidence handling.
  • ITAD reporting.
  • Recycling and disposition documentation.
  • Governance and SLA alignment.
  • Lifecycle visibility that supports earlier retirement planning.
  • Certifications and proof documents where scope is verified.

Compliance business case

Better evidence comes from earlier lifecycle control.

  1. Retirement risk is lower when asset visibility is stronger.
  2. Sanitisation evidence should be consistent across countries.
  3. Chain of custody should be documented from handoff to disposition.
  4. ITAD should connect to refresh planning and lifecycle reporting.
  5. Supplier proof includes certification scope, not only badge names.
  6. Sustainability and security documentation should not sit in separate processes.

Proof should be inspectable and scoped.
