Hard Drive Destruction Process
Our hard drive destruction begins with the sanitization of all information on your drive through degaussing. Our degausser provides compliance under regulations including HIPPA, PCI DSS, GLBA, FACTA, etc.
Degausser
Our degausser will erase any magnetic media that will fit into the drawer including all standard hard drives (laptop, desktop and network) and storage tapes (DLT, LTO, DDS/DAT, etc. It helps your organization protect your sensitive information and stay in compliance with recognized data security standards and regulations. It is the ultimate guard against data loss, which can lead to costly data breaches.
Hard Drive Crushing
Our next step is crushing, our crusher bends the hard drive approximately 90 degrees, which breaks the platters and damages the heads, motor and circuit board. Using both the degausser and crusher, your hard drive destruction will comply with recognized standards, including NSA/DoD regulations.
