Shredded Data

Hard drive shredding and data shredding

In order to keep your company in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we offer data shredding and hard drive shredding together with certified proof of destruction for each hard drive or data-bearing asset. Through the use of hole punching, degaussing, hard drive shredding, or a combination of these methods, our data shredding service enables the total destruction of data. Along with CPNI-approved hard drive shredders, we also provide granulation and disintegration upon request.

SHREDDING ABILITY

We can shred any device that contains data, such as mobile phones, hard drives, magnetic media (DLT, DDS, LTO, DAT Tapes, etc.), other storage devices (CDs, USBs, DVDs, Floppy Discs, etc.), security fobs, and much more.

The majority of shredding widths are supported by our data shredders, which feature screens that can be switched out. In particular, we provide the following:

• 20mm Shredded Data
• 6mm CPNI-approved data shredding 
• 6mm data shredding

The Center for the Protection of National Infrastructure is known as CPNI. Leaders in security, CPNI offers standards, guidelines, and resources that control how well shredding machines work. Our 2mm and 6mm CPNI shredding services ensure the maximum possible amount of data destruction.
