The Dataknox
Trade-In Program©
Maximize the residual value of your retiring IT assets through a secure, structured, and audit-ready framework. We eliminate the friction of decommissioning while ensuring total data integrity and regulatory compliance.

Unplanned repurchases generate risk.
Most organizations retire viable hardware without a clear strategy for value recovery. Fragmented buyback schemes and unverified resale channels often create security vulnerabilities and inconsistent financial outcomes. The
Dataknox Trade-In Program© replaces these ad-hoc methods with a governed process integrated directly into your IT Asset Disposition workflow.

Retire Infrastructure With Confidence
Each handoff between logistics, shredding, and recycling vendors creates gaps in control, and increases your exposure to data breaches, compliance failures, and audit shortcomings.
At Dataknox our team of ITAD experts owns the entire process. We replace fragmentation with a single, documented chain of custody so you can retire assets with ease.
