Frequently asked questions
What is a certificate of destruction?
A signed record listing each device by serial number, the sanitization or destruction method, verification results, the applicable standard and the date. It is your evidence that data was handled properly.
Is wiping a drive enough?
It can be, if the method suits the media and the result is verified, following NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 guidelines. Damaged drives and some SSDs should be physically destroyed. Degaussing works on magnetic hard drives, not SSDs.
Can you destroy drives at our office?
Yes. We can destroy drives on-site at your Houston-area office, or collect them in locked bins and destroy them after pickup. Either way, every drive is tracked by serial number.
Do you pick up in Houston?
Yes. We pick up from your office anywhere in greater Houston. We are a service-area business with no walk-in location, so we always come to you.
