Hard drive shredding
Complete physical destruction of hard drives, tapes and other recordable media, on-site with our mobile shredder or at a secure Northbay facility.
Degaussing
Powerful electromagnets erase magnetic media and render drives permanently unusable.
Data sanitization
Data-bearing devices are wiped to Department of Defense and NIST SP 800-88 guidelines (3-pass), so equipment can be safely reused or resold.
Verification & certificates
Multiple verification audits confirm every device, and you receive certificates of destruction for your records.
