Compliant Data Destruction: We've Got Compliance Covered

Compliant Data Destruction

Your company's old technology can be a significant security risk and a hazard for the environment. When technology ends up in the wrong hands or is disposed of in the wrong way, it can cost companies millions. Electronically stored data is subject to complicated HIPAA/HITECH, FACTA, SOX, GLB, FERPA, and EPA regulations that can make responsible disposal difficult. That's why LifeSpan handles compliance and environmental responsibility for you, delivering peace of mind.

With LifeSpan as your trusted partner, you get:

  • Conformance with U.S. Department of Defense data destruction standards (DoD 5220.22-M and NIST 800-88)
  • Support of all types of hard drive subsystems: IDE, SCSI, ATA, Fibre Channel, SATA, and SAS
  • Standard and customized data destruction methods (up to 99 passes)

Destruction and Sanitization Methods

On-Site and Off-Site Degaussing

Degaussing is a process where hard drives and tapes are exposed to a powerful alternating magnetic field, which renders the erased information unrecoverable. In fact, degaussing is the preferred method of sanitization by the Department of Defense and the National Security Agency for preventing data recovery.

  • Guaranteed Security: Guarantees data cannot be recovered
  • Speed: Sanitizes media in seconds and declassifies on-site
  • Reduced Risk: Prevents long storage or excess handling

On-Site and Off-Site Physical Destruction

LifeSpan can physically crush drives and storage media, rendering them useless and unrecoverable. We will then recycle drive components in an environmentally responsible manner. For high-volume customers, LifeSpan also offers on-site or off-site shredding, which can quickly destroy storage media.

On-Site or Off-Site Sanitization

LifeSpan's software-based sanitization ensures the complete erasure of all data while retaining the device's ability to be reused or resold. LifeSpan can sanitize internal or external drives and can wipe over 200 individual drives simultaneously.
