Frequently Asked Questions
Is deleting files or formatting a hard drive enough?
No. Deleted files and even formatted drives can be recovered with widely available software. Physical shredding is the only way to guarantee data cannot be recovered.
What standards do you follow for hard drive destruction?
We follow DOD 5220.22-M and NSA/CSS EPL standards for physical media destruction. Our process exceeds HIPAA, FACTA, and GLBA data destruction requirements.
Can you destroy drives while we watch?
Yes — we offer on-site hard drive shredding so you can witness the destruction firsthand. Call us at 1-844-SHRED-00 to schedule your on-site destruction event.
