As part of Secure Transportation's IT relocation, installation and de/re-rack services we are now able to audit and decommission end of life IT equipment without it even leaving site and create an asset register before completely destroying the data on the hard disk drives.* 

Our 2 stage on site process involves the degaussing and puncturing of the hard disk drive platters which will ensure irreversible data recovery. Although the disk drives are rendered useless we will still securely transport them under sealed conditions to our partners facility where they will be shredded and a certificate of destruction issued. 
Equipment is finally disposed of under Secure Transportation’s waste carriers license in accordance with the WEEE directive.

Stage 1 - On Site Degaussing

Picture
Using our Verity Systems SV91m NATO Approved deguasser we will erase the media.
​
Benefits of Using a Degausser
  • Assurance that all sensitive data has been erased permanently
  • Disposes classified media quickly, safely and in-house
  • Meets the NSA and CESG requirements for sanitisation of classified information
Simply overwriting magnetic media does not completely erase data. Only a degausser can remove data 100% and ensure that confidential data is securely and completely erased.

Compliance

​NATO Approval
​
The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation has approved the SV91 for security applications. The NATO stock numbers are as follows:
5836-99-591-3345 (50Hz)
5836-99-500-5299 (60Hz)

Regulatory Compliance

Strict industry standards & government regulations are in place that force organizations to mitigate the risk of unauthorized   exposure of confidential corporate & government data. These regulations include;
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act)
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)
FACTA (The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003)
GLB (Gramm-Leach Bliley)
Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOx)
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS)
NSA (National Security Agency)
