Data destruction
As is continually highlighted by cases in the media, lack of data security can be a major issue whether the data source is commercial or private. At SPC we understand the necessity of total data security for all our clients, and have therefore implemented a set of procedures to ensure the safe destruction of all client data.
For the secure data wiping of hard drives we offer a choice of two options:
- A European industry leading data wiping product which is based on a one licence per drive pricing structure.
- Our in-house data erasing software which prevents all known techniques of hard disk forensic analysis, meeting industry standard data protection requirements. As part of our commitment to total data security, this second drive erasure process can usually be provided as a complimentary service.
Any drive that fails the drive wiping procedure is physically shredded, preventing any possibility of future data recovery. Whichever service is used, a full data destruction report is provided detailing each drive’s asset number, serial number, outcome (wiped or shredded) and date of wiping.
In addition to hard drive data wiping, SPC can also carry out full data destruction (preventing any form of future data recovery) on the following types of data storage media:
- CD/DVD media
- Solid state media (Pen drives, memory cards etc)
- Tape backup media (DLT / SDLT / DAT/ LTO / AIT etc)
From the point of collection through to the re-deployment or disposal of assets, the combination of physical security measures and data destruction techniques employed by us is designed to ensure that your confidential data is completely secure at all times.
