Computer Data Destruction

Personal computers hold a vast amount of data. A single gigabyte of disk space can hold as much as 8 file cabinet drawers full of documents. In just those 8 drawers who can remember if there is a page or two with identifying information? Imagine just the old full 40gb hard drive with 320 file drawers worth of data, or a common 500gb hard drive holding 4000 full file drawers! This huge amount of datais why there are so many laws regarding personal information. Here is some legislation that effects the majority of US citizens and a few that just pertain to Texas. Just click on the blue links below to get more informationon the various rules and laws. These links will open in a new page.
 
Personal computers today possess an extraordinary capacity to store vast amounts of data, which has led to a significant concern over privacy and information security. A single gigabyte of disk space can hold the equivalent of eight file cabinet drawers filled with documents. Considering that many personal computers boast storageoptions ranging from 250 GB to over 1 TB, it becomes evident that the amount of informationcontained within these devices can be quite staggering. For instance, an older 40 GB hard drive is capable of storing dataequivalent to an overwhelming 320 file drawers, while a typical 500 GB hard drive can accommodate a staggering 4,000 drawers. The sheer volume of dataraises essential questions about the managementand protection of personal information, especially given that some of this datamay include sensitive material that users might not even remember saving.

This massive accumulation of datais why there are stringent laws and regulations focusing on personal data protection, particularly for U.S. citizens. Legislation such as the Health InsurancePortability and AccountabilityAct (HIPAA) and the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) seeks to provide safeguards against the misuse of personal information. In addition, states like Texas have their own set of laws that specifically address dataprivacy, ensuring that citizens’ informationis collected, stored, and processed in a secure and responsible manner. For those interested in understanding how these regulations apply to them, we provide links to comprehensive resources on the various rules and laws affecting dataprivacy. By clicking on these blue links, users can explore the legislative landscape surrounding personal information, all while ensuring that they, too, can engage with their digital informationin a professional, secure, and environmentally responsible manner.

Secure Onsite Hard Drive Data Destruction at Your Location

We will bring a portable punch to your location, and destroy your drives right before your eyes. We will scan the serial numbers on your hard drives. Our Hard drive punch generates the pressure required to push a steel punch through the hard drive. This process mangles the hard drive and data containing platters beyond physical repair. The drives are then mixed in with thousands of other drives for further recycling. Need your drives removed? We can do that too and of course, recycle the computers as well.

Ship to Destroy

A simple and contactless method of hard drive destruction. Let us know how many drives you have for destruction and we will ship you a complete kit containing, a secure container and security seals. When you receive the container you simply follow the included instructions and ship the container back to us with the label provided. When we receive the container we will scan the serial numbers and destroy the drives. A certificate of destruction including serial numbers will then be issued to you via our client portal.

In House Hard Drive Shredding
