Types of Data Destruction and Secure IT Disposal
With regard to physical computer media (such as tape media storage, disk drives, and SSDs), secure IT disposal is a procedure that ensures that data is truly erased or that the media has been destroyed to the point of being unreadable.
Physical Data Destruction
Opting for physical destruction ensures the irretrievability of your information. Our advanced shredders streamline this process, making shredding the most secure and cost-efficient method for disposing of various storage media. Whether conducted at our secure facility or through on-site shredding, our data destruction protocols safeguard clients from legal liabilities and corporate asset loss.

Magnetic Media Degaussing
Magnetic degaussing, also referred to as bulk erasing, offers a comprehensive solution for permanently erasing data from magnetic storage media. By deleting, formatting, and controlling information on the track, this method ensures thorough data erasure. Data tape degaussing subjects media to a potent magnetic field, effectively removing all stored data. It’s an ideal choice for small and medium-sized businesses seeking a cost-effective method to securely destroy retired media tapes.
