VIZION Particle Size Verification

ADISA’s proprietary method for imaging and analysing particle output to verify compliance with ISO/IEC 21964 Part 2

What is VIZION Particle Size Verification?

ADISA has created VIZION to advance particle size verification from casual practice to a more scientific approach.

VIZION combines high-resolution imagery using a light box and camera with an analysis process using proprietary software. This software measures the two longest dimensions of the particle size and computes the surface area. Even for irregular shapes, the software can accurately identify the particle area, ensuring that a destruction activity meets the specifications outlined in Part 2 of ISO 21964.

Scope of VIZION Particle Size Verification

The scope of VIZION Particle Size Verification primarily involves ensuring that particles meet specific size standards to guarantee the complete destruction of data on storage media. This verification is crucial because it determines the effectiveness of the process in rendering data irretrievable.

Why choose VIZION Particle Size Verification

There are many specifications that confirm particle sizes, including NPSA, R2v3, and several aligned with the German DIN Standards (ISO 21964 and EN 15713). Verification of compliance with these standards varies in terms of attention to detail, with some being confirmed by a basic visual inspection and others using simple measurements with callipers or even rulers.

VIZION excels in particle size verification by employing advanced, precise verification methods that ensure consistent and accurate particle sizes, surpassing basic visual inspections and simple measurements used by other standards. This rigorous approach guarantees more accurate testing across various storage media, making VIZION the trusted choice for organisations handling sensitive data.
