As technology continues to improve, we are able to collect, store and transfer information at an alarming rate. Unfortunately, this also exposes individuals and corporations to the possibility of security breaches and identity theft. Information is stored on more than just computers and laptops; printers, copiers, scanners, faxes, cell phones, PDAs and more, also retain confidential information. If not disposed of properly, discarded electronics still carrying sensitive corporate data, customer records, financial statements, and other indentifying information can end up at unsecure locations, increasing the likelihood of misuse. We recognize the potential threat of stolen data and aim to protect our customers against it by providing a variety of Data Destruction solutions including; Clearing, Purging, and Physical Destruction. We guarantee secure services and offer access controlled facilities, qualified access personnel, and 24/7 video surveillance.
Methods
Once the customer has determined the security and data destruction levels, we will destroy the data using the customer preferred method of Clearing, Purging, or Physical Destruction. (see Our Credibility)
- Clearing via Wiping: Media destroyed using this method will be wiped using BLANCCO software, which meets the Department of Defense Standard 5220.22-M.
- Purging via Degaussing: This method uses the Proton 8000 Degausser/Bulk Eraser, which has the capability to erase computer magnetic media, tapes, disks, cartridges, A/V tape film, and hard drives.
- Physical Destruction via Shredding: This method shreds the media device into pieces two inches or smaller. With this selection, customers also have the option to witness the shredding and may request multiple passes through the shredder to meet their desired shred size.
Tracking
Materials can be tracked through our secure Transfer-of-Custody protocols.
Validation
Customers utilizing our Data Destruction services will be provided with the appropriate documentation and/or certificates, based on the method of destruction selected.
