Data Sanitization and Hard drive shredding

Protecting your data and ensuring that it is not improperly disseminated is perhaps the most important consideration when looking into the remarketing or disposal of technology assets. Genie Technologies strictly adhere to DoD high level security data sanitization procedures (5220.22M). We offer two solutions to protect you from any data breaches or improper dissemination.

Shredding on-site or off-site

Genie Technologies has a state-of-the art mobile AMS-300HD.  This is a top of the line unit that will shred hard drives of all sizes and types (including SSD), CD, cell phones backup tapes and much more.  Most important it is HIPPA/ PC / NSA compliant.  It will shred media down to a point where it is almost impossible to retrieve any data. Genie Technologies can shred the media on-site or at our location.

Data Wiping

Formatting a hard drive or reinstalling an operating system in no way ensures that your data is not accessible.  In fact the data can be accessed with readily available tools.  Genie Technologies uses tools by WipeDrive (White Canyon) which ensures your data is completely erased.  Wipe Drive uses military grade wiping technology that overwrites your data multiple times using Department of Defense approved wipe patterns, ensuring that your data is unrecoverable even using the most sophisticated tools.
