Privacy and data security

Certified destruction, strict chain-of-custody and controlled handling of sensitive information at every stage.

Our security principles

Protecting information handed to us is the whole basis of the service. These are the controls that carry it.

Sanitisation to NIST 800-88Federal media sanitisation guidance governs every software-based wipe we perform, with verification recorded per device.

DoD 5220.22-M overwritingMulti-pass overwriting applied where a client’s policy requires that specific standard.

Unbroken chain-of-custodySealed containers, signed transfers and serialised tracking from your dock to final disposition.

Controlled facility accessProcessing areas are access-controlled, and handling of data-bearing media is recorded.

Destruction before dispositionNo device is resold, donated or recycled until its storage media has been sanitised or destroyed.

Evidence you can fileCertificates and serialised reporting produced in the form an auditor will accept.
