Digital Data Destruction for accurate security
Data destroying increases your cyber security and prevents data from falling into the wrong hands, which could have serious consequences. You don’t want corporate financial records, private information about employees or other personal data to be accessed if a data breach would occur.
Having said that, avoiding a data breach is part of proper Hardware Monitoring.
Our team of IT experts destroys your data with care, accuracy and the maximum level of security.
What do we mean by Digital Data Destruction?
With data destruction or data destroying, we’re referring to the process of removing data from systems like tapes, hard disks or other forms of hardware. This could be any type of data that shouldn’t fall into the hands of threat actors or wrong people.
That’s where data destruction comes into play. It increases your cyber security and prevents information that’s no longer needed from being used for the wrong purposes. This could be the case with cyber criminals, who interfere with your systems and capture your data. The less data available, the less risk you face.
⬤ Data that should be destroyed are:
⬤ Software programs
⬤ Institutional/business data
⬤ Personally identifiable data
⬤ Non-public data
How Digital Data Destroying works
Data destroying can be done in different ways. The most common methods are overwriting, degaussing, wiping and physical destruction.
Degaussing
With degaussing, we either decrease or wipe out the magnetic field inside storage devices. The data that resides in this magnetic field will be erased. Degaussing is a very secure form of data destruction and offers a high level of safety, which can be done in very little time and is very versatile too.
Physical destruction
We have the option to physically destroy hardware. This means we shred or crush the different components to a super tiny size, which ensures irretrievable memory and function. It’s said to be the safest way to eliminate data and it can destroy enormous amounts of hardware at once. We can do this onsite for you.
Overwriting
Data overwriting is a software-based method that completely overwrites all parts of a hard disk drive or other type of digital storage device.
Data wiping
By connecting a hardware device to a wiping device or software, data can be wiped out. Wiping is especially suitable for smaller companies, as it’s a time-intensive process that still retains the core function of a device for future use.
A good Data Destruction Policy values your privacy
A proper Data Destruction Policy guarantees maximum security. It includes what type of data will be destroyed, which method will be used and who will be in charge of the destruction process. It also minimizes the risk of a data breach and the consequences that your company could face.
Important factors that should be included in a Data Destruction Policy are:
⬤ Thet type of data that will be destroyed
⬤ The method that will be used for destroying it
⬤ The person or company that’s in charge for the destruction
⬤ A timetable for the data destruction process
