Sarbanes-Oxley. HIPAA. EPA. These fewcan halt a conversation and shift the mood in a boardroom. In today’s demanding business world, discerning executives know that their challenges are more serious than ever with new laws and regulations that impact records management programs — and quite possibly, a company’s status.
Businesses across all industries must address multiple
regulatory requirements which limit how long companies are required to maintain records and in what manner they can dispose of them. Keeping data longer than required by law opens your company up to potential legal risk.
TechDisposal can help you mitigate those risks to your company with multiple methods for the destruction of media.
Degaussing
The media is run over a high-powered magnet. The data is destroyed, but the media is unharmed and can be resold or redeployed back to your company.
Data Wiping
The data is destroyed using DOD compliant data erasure software. The media is then reformatted. This results in destroying all the data on the drive, yet leaves the media unharmed and available for remarket or redeployment.
We use the data erasure standard (
DoD 5220.22-M Erase) used by The Department of Defense to sanitize your drives. This process will permanently erase system files, programs files, viruses and all of your data; safeguarding your software licensing agreements.
All confidential and proprietary data is secured.
- Removal of embedded logins and passwords
- Removal of intellectual property
- Removal of client data and personal information
- Removal of proprietary application
Physical Destruction
For media that requires an extra level of security or for media that cannot be degaussed, wiped, or has no remarketable value, it is processed through our industrial shredder which is capable of processing 10,000 data tapes per hour, resulting in small, unreadable bits of plastic.
As with all other of our services you will receive a detailed audit report, certificate of destruction, and waiver of liability.
