CY4 provides physical destruction and non-physical data sanitization services.
Degaussing and digital medium forensic destruction
Security, confidentiality, or privacy of data is one of the greatest concerns to computer users and companies when disposing or reallocating of their redundant IT devices. Business data or confidential documents can easily fall into the wrong hands when one sells, gives away, or disposes of redundant PC or hard drives. Deleting files or formatting a drive is not enough to irrevocably erase data. Mostly people confuse data destruction or sanitization with deletion or formatting. When the data is erased or formatted it simply means it is no longer accessible by the operating system. Deleted data can still be recovered by our experts using data recovery tools. Without proper data destruction methods, the risk of exposing sensitive data is high. CY4 provides physical destruction and non-physical data sanitization services. Physical destruction or degaussing is simply shredding the hard drive or storage media. Non-physical sanitization is permanent data wiping with professional erasure software that overwrites the entire hard drive with random data until it is considered as irretrievable.
