Hard Drive Destruction
Hard drive destruction is necessary for companies when they are upgrading to new systems, or when old hardware reaches the end of its life cycle.
Today, most businesses store sensitive information, highly confidential emails, invoices, budgetary numbers, and internal information on hard drives. Tossing these away in the trash leaves critical information vulnerable to exposure. Hard drive destruction is the only method of data removal that guarantees the safety of your company’s critical information.
Erasing Data is Not Enough
It is a myth that wiping a hard drive clean means that information has been removed successfully. On the contrary, the opposite is true. Your business’ safety depends on more than erasing data. Fragments of information can still remain accessible even after your hard drive has been formatted. If a skilled individual gets a hold of your old hard drives, their determination and know-how approach is all it will take to access those critical files. Data can only be removed by professional hard drive destruction which will help ensure your company’s future is protected. This form of document destruction is also known as hard drive shredding.

Jamie in the office has been fantastic to work with, helping me figure out the level of service I need; and Jose, the driver, is friendly and efficient and took the time to show me how it works when he dropped off the bin. This is indeed a well-run company that delivers on its promises. I highly recommend them! read less
