Magnetic Tape Destruction – Onsite Service

We deliver NextGen Magnetic Tape Destruction Solutions to meet the most demanding regulatory compliance and ESG requirements

Why Magnetic Tape Destruction?

Magnetic Tape Destruction services and products are the most recognized way to destroy information from any storage device effectively, and they fulfill international standards such as NSADOD 5220.22-MNIST 800-88 R1(Revision 1)ISO/IEC 21964-2:2018DIN 66399EN 15713:2009, EN 15713:2023ISO-27001:2013 and ISO-27001:2022.

Nowadays, digital information is stored everywhere: on servers, computers, laptops, mobile phones, and other storage media. This information may include Personally Identifiable Information (PII), personal information, confidential information, passwords, configurations, proprietary information, GDPR-related information, and even trade secrets.

For instance, when we open an attachment in an email software, the temporary file will be left on the hard disk, and the data residing on the disk may exceed our expectations. Simply using the native system command to delete the data or format the disk won’t suffice, as the information will still reside on the disk and can be easily recovered. Even if the hard drive cannot operate normally, data recovery companies can still retrieve the data. Additionally, as more people use smartphones for work, mobile devices may also contain sensitive information, such as PII, personal information, confidential information, proprietary information, GDPR-related information, or even trade secrets, within instant messaging Apps, Email Apps, or Photo Apps. Therefore, a standard and effective way to completely and securely erase/purge/wipe our data before IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) is crucial.

Furthermore, adversaries may leverage indirect information such as passwords and configurations as the source of reconnaissance. Hackers can easily crack the password inside the networking appliance to perform additional brute force attacks or even leverage the knowledge of network architecture to conduct further attacks.

To ensure that your data is safely and effectively disposed of, CyberSecThreat leverages advanced technologies and skilled infosec professionals to provide Magnetic Tape Destruction services. We can securely erase your data to ensure that it cannot be recovered, keeping you and your business safe from cyber threats.

Our Magnetic Tape Destruction service also includes the scrapping and disposal of IT assets, such as servers, desktop computers, laptops, mobile phones, tablets, and other storage devices. We can provide IT asset management solutions to ensure that your IT equipment is properly handled and sensitive data is securely erased.

Finally, we also provide Magnetic Tape Destruction certificates to ensure that your data is safely disposed of and compliant with various regulations and requirements. If you would like to learn more about our Magnetic Tape Destruction service, please contact our professional team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Service coverage includes Taipei and New Taipei City. Additional transportation fees will be charged for other areas.

The following storage devices can be destroyed: 2.5″/3.5″ HDD and Server HDD, SSD, PC Card, FD, MO, ZIP, Mobile Phone, PDA, Tablet, CD/DVD/BD/HD-DVD, Tape, and USB. If you have other items you want to destroy, please contact us.

Firstly, not all storage devices can be degaussed. For example, degauss does not have any effects on SSD or mobile phones. Secondly, crushing and shredding provide the most effective way and evidence to verify that the drive had been destroyed.

Most organizations that fall under NIST 800-88, HIPAA, and PCI data destruction require that SSDs and other flash media be shredded to .375” (9.5mm).  This size shred ensures that all chips are destroyed.

For any order that reaches a specified amount, we will provide destruction evidence, destruction certificate and report without any additional charges. Please contact us for more information.

If you operate a business center or waste recycling center, you can offer data destruction as a value-added service for your customers. If you are a service provider, you may consider renting the destruction equipment to provide your service to customers.

Our service can offer fully customized solutions to fit your needs (E.g. service locations, quantities, container specifications, sealing methods/Serialized Cable, verification methods, recording methods, types of evidence, GPS tracking, etc.).

Yes, please remove the battery and mounting bracket. We will charge for removing the battery and mounting bracket.

We currently offer 3 destruction methods: degaussing, crushing (V-shaped) destruction, and shredding.
