Sanitization/Erasing is Not Totally Secure
Simply formatting or “writing-over” a hard drive may not be enough. A 3-pass DOD wipe takes 5 hours, this is not secure since there are increased chances for human error. Hard-drives that are damaged or Broken cannot be overwritten and so there would be drives in the facility that are sanitized along with the ones that cannot and ones that are awaiting sanitization. These drives are not easily identified and due to human error can be missed.
However in a “total-shred” process ALL drives are shredded. Especially with DFW Shredding’s process, the hard-drives are shredded (takes 20 seconds per Hard-Drive) and therefore all data is destroyed on your site (On our trucks), before leaving your parking lot!
YES! we actually SHRED hard drives and other media, not just “punch” a hole in them…
