DATA DESTRUCTION SERVICES
Service Description
THE BUSINESS CHALLENGE
Since 2009 our data destruction services have been used to securely wipe disk drives to DoD and NIST 800-88 standards.
​
Responsible protection of customer data includes the destruction of data at certain times in the information lifecycle. HIPAA requires that data be eradicated when it leaves an organization's control. PCI states that when data is no longer required by an organization it must be deleted.
​
Our on-site secure erasure services are trusted by some of the largest corporations in America. . ​
New regulations, requirements, and customer loyalty demand that every piece of information be protected throughout its lifecycle. Responsibility doesn’t end at lease end or when drive replacement is required – your confidential data is at risk any time you add to, move, or change your storage environment. These scenarios include:
-
Returning equipment at lease end
-
Preparing assets for retirement or end-of-life
-
Servicing disks in maintenance situations
-
Re-purposing or relocating information assets
-
Reallocating storage in shared storage environments
VIOS Data Erasure Services use proprietary industry tools and techniques to help protect your information – safely, securely, and auditably.
VIOS completes the process by providing a comprehensive report and certified data erasure report for the specific drives erased and the level of erasure selected.
Designed with your business requirements in mind, our Data Erasure Services can be delivered on full arrays and as well as single drives after proactive replacement (i.e. predictive failure swapouts). Full array erasure services are available for all array types, includes EMC, HDS, IBM, NetApp and HP arrays. VIOS experts overwrite physical storage data with a pattern of random data in one or more iterations to render the underlying data unreadable. For flash based media, we will first attempt to execute embedded erasure commands which erase every cell on the drive, and follow that with a multi-pass overwrite.
It is the only solution available today that delivers independent verification of data erasure, documented with a Certified Erasure Report, proving compliance with government and industry regulations and guidelines.
