Our data destruction services ensure that all confidential information is removed from your hard drive.
We will collect your data carriers from you and take them with us for destruction in the incinerator.
But deleting information from your tapes and hard drives is not as easy as it seems.
Even if you overwrite them several times with new data, your media supports often contain unwanted valuable data.
Therefore, we recommend that you consider demagnetising (degaussing).
Especially when it comes to media with confidential information.
This makes the data on your disks or tapes completely unreadable.
Destroy paper? Of course we do. Learn more about document destruction.
How to eliminate data misuse completely?
There are many ways to destroy your hard drive itself.
However, you are never completely sure that all your data has been effectively deleted from your drive.
Data can often still be read even on broken hard drives.
Already thought about professional demagnetisation?
To completely rule out misuse, we recommend that you first opt to professionally demagnetise your data carrier. Demagnetising your device with the degausser makes the information it contains truly unreadable. We use the same procedures and machines as the U.S. government to demagnetise tapes and hard drives. This makes it possible to ensure that your confidential information has been destroyed. You can then have the carrier itself destroyed (tape, CD-ROM, hard disk...).
Our advice
There are many ways to destroy your hard drive itself. However, you are never completely sure that all your data has been effectively deleted from your drive. Data can often still be read even on broken hard drives.
That is why we recommend that you not only have your data carriers destroyed, but also demagnetised by professionals.
This is the only conclusive way to ensure that your confidential data is protected from misuse.
Standard destruction: bulk destruction by incineration
Your data carriers will be picked up from you by our staff.
They will be stored in a secure and enclosed area with us until the destruction procedure is initiated. Your data carriers will then be destroyed in an incinerator. Upon collection, you will receive a confirmation of your destruction order from us.
Destruction with details
If you wish, we will provide an inventory of all the carriers we have destroyed. This allows you to keep an overview of the destroyed data per carrier.
Destruction according to laws and standards
Are you legally required to delete certain files? We will help you to permanently destroy any confidential and other information in accordance with all the rules, laws and standards. In addition, we will provide you with a legal certificate of destruction that you can submit to all the necessary authorities.
ISO 27001 certified
This international information security standard specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, performing, monitoring, assessing, maintaining and improving a documented Information Security Management System (ISMS) to address the overall business risk to the organisation.
Your data probably also contains confidential information. That is why we take no risk and challenge ourselves to continually improve our processes and thus further boost our qualitative information security credentials on a daily basis.
Confirmation of destruction
Your data carriers will be destroyed in an incinerator. This is under the strict supervision of our employees. After destruction, we will send you confirmation of your destruction order.
Upon simple request, we even provide you with a detailed overview of all the carriers we have destroyed. This allows you to keep an overview of the destroyed data per carrier.
