NSA approved process. Our NSA approved hard drive degaussers are annually re-certified by an outside third party. This two-step process of disk degaussing then shredding satisfies all DoD regulations and guidelines.

Hard disc degaussing services can be overseen by our customers, recorded to DVD, monitored remotely via a dedicated IP address or overseen and verified by cleared personnel.

Our unique process along with highly trained personnel provides the highest level of security for hard drive disposal.

On-site degaussing and shredding of hard drives means that your media is fully destroyed per NSA specifications before leaving your facility. Having your media destroyed by a nationally recognized data destruction expert is an important component of any compliance program and will suffice for a DSS inspection.

Degaussing is the process of decreasing or eliminating an unwanted magnetic field. Data is stored in magnetic media, such as hard drives, by making very small areas called magnetic domains change their magnetic alignment to be in the direction of an applied magnetic field. Degaussing, commonly called erasure, leaves the domains in random patterns with no preference to orientation, thereby rendering previous data unrecoverable. Hard drives cannot be re-used after degaussing.

As a nationwide vendor, we offer assured compliance with standardized policies, procedures and training for guaranteed destruction exceeding mandatory legal guidelines. Our CAGE code is available upon request.

Upon completion, we issue a government recognized Certificate of Destruction.

Tape degaussing changes the alignment of the magnetic domain where the data is stored, thus “erasing” the data. Unlike hard drives, some tapes can be re-used after degaussing. Our on-site data destruction service allows our customers to watch our process for backup tape degaussing right at their facility.

Physical Data Destruction

A disk shredder is used at our location and an audit completed of all devices that are capable of holding data. This can be in the form of hard disks, memory cards, RAID or other cards that hold cache memory, tapes, CDs and USB keys. These are then crushed and shredded while you watch. There is a charge per unit for all data deletion/destruction options, but in most cases this charge is offset against the value of the disk or system through resale once the process has been completed. Obviously if you decide that data deletion is the preferred option you will regain more capital should those units be re-marketable.

Level 1 – Drive nullification followed by a data overwrite with zeros. Level 3 – Drive nullification followed by three data overwrites. Level 7 – Drive nullification followed by two three-pass processes, ending with the final pass of random characters Using software our security office is able to verify 100% reliable, accountable, data destruction.
