AAD-50 is an open-source framework eliminating the 15-year verification gap in NVMe sanitization where drives return premature success handshakes during background purging. It forces host polling of NVMe Log Page 0x81 until destruction is firmware-confirmed. The utility exposes hidden over-provisioned blocks and intercepts silent background processing windows to enforce strict, silicon-level data destruction guarantees.
FEATURES:
NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 Purge compliant
SHA-256 tamper-evident audit trails
Automated PDF Certificate generation
ENHANCEMENTS:
Active Log Page 0x81 hardware polling
50-cycle high-assurance firmware purging
Silicon-level deallocated status validation
Integrated cycle timing analysis
Block-purge progress tracking
Non-destructive ASIC hardware emulation (Safe Mode)
Hardened Media Encryption Key erasure
COMPATIBILITY:
Legacy unverified handshakes removed
Strict host active polling required
