data destruction
Hard Drives Shredded on Site in Our Secured Facility
ViaTeK highly recommends the total destruction of hard drives to ensure safe and complete data removal. Today’s data recovery techniques are very sophisticated, and the only guaranteed way to dispose of confidential information on hard drives is to completely destroy them in a secure facility.
We assume cradle-to-grave liability of physical hard drives and data destruction
This means that from the time we pick up your material to the time we’re able to issue a certificate of completion, we assume liability.
We stand by our Wipe Drive software that wipes hard drives and destroys data beyond recovery. Our complete physical data and media destruction is conducted in highly secured, heavily supervised facilities.
ViaTeK records and documents serial numbers from hard drives and all other materials to meet recording requirements. Our methodology for hard drive and data destruction adheres to the appropriate regulations and acts, including:
- Patriot Act of 2022
- Identify Theft and Assumption Deference Act
- FDA Security Regulations (21 C.F.R. Part 11)
- PCI Data Security Standard (applies to office transactions not directly to data destruction)
