Types Of Data Destruction

SHREDDING

A simply destructive way to protect your data

Because all companies have different security policies, we offer either an on-site or back-at-base shredding service. For those companies where the policy is to keep all hard drives on-site until destroyed, we can bring our hard drive shredder to you and carry out the destruction supervised by your staff. Offsite hard drive shredding is where any hard drives brought back to Ucan Recycling will be securely stored, then shredded, a certificate of destruction is provided when requested for your files. We will also issue a Waste Transfer Note which is signed by both the transferor and the transferee.

DATA ERASED

Using leading and trusted industry software

Read More

Also known as data wiping. Using the best software packages available: Using industry-leading software, we can securely delete all files from data-bearing devices. This is a quick and effective method of removing data from drives and the beauty of wiping means that the drives can also be reused. We always carry out data wiping as standard when a client doesn’t stipulate another method and we offer this service free of charge. For any devices that fail during wiping, they will be degaussed to ensure total data security.
