When an electronic media or storage device is not needed anymore, getting rid of it isn’t as easy as just flinging it into the garbage. If that device or media stores confidential information, it is just as susceptible to identity thieves, corporate spies, and hackers as a basic piece of paper. Even if your confidential information has been removed from the media or device, thieves and hackers with the right technology know-how can find a way to restore it.
Absolute Data Destruction provides advanced data destruction services for secure destruction of data contained on storage media. Our data destruction services result in a thorough and systematic elimination of all data on magnetic storage media including:
Hard Drives | Magnetic Tapes | Floppy Disks | Removable Storage Devices | Zip Drives | DLTs | CDs | DVDs
Absolute Data Destruction provides ONLY offsite (NO onsite) media destruction:
Offsite:
Collects and consolidates materials from your facility
Inventories and tracks the materials selected for destruction
Shrink-wraps, tags, and prepares materials for protected transport to the media destruction plant
*Note that Absolute Data Destruction does NOT offer onsite shredding — only offsite shredding. Offsite shredding is done in our secure facility that features over 15 security cameras to monitor and ensure safe shredding practices. Onsite shredding can be compared to a Brink’s truck coming to pick up your money and counting it on your dock before putting it into the truck — this is a very risky approach to shredding that we do not support.*
