About the publisher
BlankState is built and maintained by Stabilise Ltd, an Apple Premium Technical Partner based in the United Kingdom. We work directly with ITAD operators, enterprise IT teams, legal and financial firms, and education institutions on Apple device end-of-life workflows. Our technical guidance is grounded in first-hand field experience, independent results from the ADISA Product Claims Test methodology, Apple's own Platform Security documentation, and NIST Special Publication 800-88 Rev. 2, the standard US guideline for media sanitisation.
Three Steps. One App.
Assess device health with 100-point grading. Erase with DFU firmware-level wipe. Certify with tamper-evident PDF documentation verifiable at blankstate.io/verify. BlankState replaces fragmented ITAD workflows with a single, streamlined tool for Mac and iOS.
