Data Security: Disk Drive Shredding

Mitigate data security risks with disk/hard drive shredding

Information breaches and data theft are costly and embarrassing.

The expense of a single data breach averages $6.6 million. There are legal nightmares, the fines, the loss of marketing goodwill. And over time the fallout costs can continue to skyrocket.

Our on-site, mobile hard drive shredder physically destroys sensitive information at your company’s location—securely and confidentially. Critical data is not moved off-site. Hard drive shredding is an excellent data security solution for financial services companies, medical facilities, manufacturers and many others.

RenovoData Services provides a complete chain-of-custody documentation on all disk drives shredded for extensive proof, and we issue a Media Destruction Certificate for each completed job. Plus, you can contract our services weekly, monthly or annually so you always know who is handling your sensitive information.

After we shred the hard drive, our Zero Landfill Policy guarantees the material is tagged for recycling and handled properly. All toxic metals are reclaimed—this material will never end up in a landfill. We back up our audited and certified processes with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 documentation.
