Engaging in a 30-minute conversation with one of our Data Destruction Advisors can be instrumental in formulating a cost-effective proposal tailored to meet your precise data security needs.
Vendor Selection
Opt for On-site Data Destruction Services if your organization has stringent data security and regulatory compliance requirements. Choosing a vendor that offers on-site hard drive destruction services is crucial. Once data-bearing equipment leaves a company’s premises, any intact data on that equipment becomes vulnerable, exposing the company to potential data breach incidents. Prioritizing on-site destruction helps mitigate such risks and ensures a higher level of data security.
Secure Chain of Custody
Maintaining a Secure Chain of Custody is crucial when on-site hard drive data destruction isn’t feasible. Opt for a vendor that provides secure transportation for data-bearing assets. Ensure an unbroken chain of custody from pickup to transportation to destruction. Clearly define who will have access to the equipment and establish protocols from the moment of pickup until the completion of the processing phase. This approach adds a layer of assurance to the overall security of your data-bearing assets.
Ensure the Safety and Security of Your Data
Every day, your organization generates valuable data that fuels your competitive edge and propels your company forward. However, when this same data resides on retired IT assets, it poses a potential risk of a data disaster. We recognize the critical importance of securing all data, even on assets no longer in use. Our services guarantee the safety of data on your retired assets and include:
- · On-site hard drive degaussing and destruction
- · Secure recycling facilities operated by thoroughly screened employees
