It is worthwhile knowing, that even damaged data storages such as hard disks, often contain confidential, company data. Furthermore, this data can be accessed without your knowledge. Thankfully, there are effective and easy ways in order to make it impossible to retrieve.

To remove this data, it is necessary to use radical methods - such as physical destruction of the media or its effective neutralization - i.e. the definitive removal of all data stored on it. Such methods are used, for example, by the military, the services, banks and insurance institutions.

Our solution in such a situation in is the use of a dedicated device which, by using an extremely powerful magnetic field pulse, will remove all data from a particular device.

Our ASM120 demagnetizer meets the following safety standards and data destruction guidelines:

• PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry) Data Security Standard
• NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) Guidelines for Media Sanitization, NIST SP 800-36
• NIST SP 800-88, HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)
• PIPEDA (Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documentation Act), HMG CESG IS5, U. of 2004 No. 100, pos. 1024

We offer personal data destruction service using the ASM120 demagnetizer and media scraping. It is also possible to lease a device and perform a data erasure operation by yourself.

As for the effectiveness of removing previously recorded data, the use of demagnetizer is as effective as the physical destruction of a given media.
