The company

A new company, built the old way

EndByte is a Silicon Valley data destruction company built by someone who grew up doing exactly this — wiping, verifying, and certifying drives at data center scale. We exist to do one thing exceptionally well: make retired data provably unrecoverable, with the paperwork to back it up.

Being small is the point. Every job gets direct attention, every drive gets the full protocol, and every client gets a straight line to the person actually running the bench.

Integrity first

Trust and transparency in every engagement — we'd rather lose a deal than cut a corner.

Verification over promises

If we can't verify it, we don't certify it. Every certificate is backed by a full-surface read-back.

Direct accountability

No layers, no handoffs — you work directly with the person doing the work.

Who you're working with

Hi, I'm Aiden — and I'll be the one handling your drives.

I was born and raised in Silicon Valley, and I've spent the last five years doing data destruction at scale — running wipe jobs of thousands of drives and handling enterprise decommissions where a single unaccounted drive isn't an option. This is the work I know.

Somewhere along the way I started building the software that runs the wipe bench itself — the tooling that drives the hardware, tracks every drive through every pass, and turns a wall of disks into a clean, verified audit trail. I don't just operate the process; I built the tools it runs on, and I know exactly what's happening to every sector.

I started EndByte to offer that directly — without the overhead, the layers, or the handoffs that come with a big vendor. When you hire EndByte, you're not getting a ticket number. You're getting me: every drive I take in, I personally wipe or destroy, verify, and certify.
