Hard Drive Destruction Services

PROSHRED® Washington DC uses secure hard drive shredding to destroy hard drives for local businesses, government agencies, as well as individuals to permanently erase any sensitive digital data. More securely than deleting the data, hard drive destruction safeguards sensitive data stored on electronic devices by preventing it from being recovered or stolen altogether. We use a secure chain of custody for hard drives. We also shred them at your location in mobile trucks, issue you a document of destruction for your records or compliance needs, and recycle all electronic waste. Learn more information below.

Why Is Hard Drive Destruction Necessary for Data Protection?

As more of your information gets stored electronically, data security becomes increasingly important. Electronic security breaches are becoming a commonplace crime, and gigabytes of private documents, spreadsheets, and electronic data can be easily unleashed to the online world. When a computer or other data sensitive device has reached the end of its life cycle, it is of utmost importance that the device’s hard drive is completely destroyed just like other products with sensitive information is shredded with a product destruction service. If this unit is ever stolen, even an unskilled hacker can retrieve highly sensitive information which could jeopardize your or your organization’s information security. The hard drive destruction services we offer in Washington D.C. are as equally beneficial for businesses' data security as they are for government organizations. Do not let your business, department, or agency become the next victim of a cybercrime — destroy your hard drives today.

Why Erasing Your Data Isn’t Enough Security

Simply clicking the “delete” button on a document or media file is not proper information security for hard drives. Even downloading security software and antivirus firewalls won’t protect your data once the device is disconnected, out-of-date, and ready for disposal. Data thieves can still steal fragments of “deleted” data from hard drives if they are not destroyed properly first. Our hard drive destruction process completely obliterates the physical device, permanently deleting the files on it.
