Three destruction paths. One audit-ready outcome.
Every data-bearing asset follows a documented destruction path. We identify each device, apply the appropriate sanitization or destruction method, and provide serialized reporting or certificates your team can verify. Below is the equipment we use, the standards we follow, and how we choose the right method for each project.
For drives with a second life ahead of them.
ADISA-Verified Software: Blancco and WipeOS
Industry-leading erasure platforms that generate tamper-proof, serialized Certificates of Erasure for every single drive processed.
PXE Boot Integration for Rack-Scale Throughput
Our facility is optimized for simultaneous, high-throughput erasure. We can PXE boot entire racks of equipment at once, significantly reducing time-to-market for your assets without compromising security.
Tamper-Proof Audit Trail
Every sanitized drive triggers a Certificate of Erasure providing a transparent, serialized chain-of-custody that keeps your organization fully compliant with global privacy regulations.
NIST 800-88 Baseline Standard
We use the most modern and widely accepted sanitization standard in the world as our baseline, with full flexibility to adjust methods to meet your specific corporate or industry requirements.
Two stages, because one isn’t enough.
When magnetic media must be physically destroyed, we run a two-stage process. The drive is degaussed first to neutralize the magnetic signature, then shredded into fragments. Either step alone is industry-standard. Together, they remove the question.
Phase I
Magnetic neutralization
Degaussing
The drive is exposed to a high-energy magnetic field that scrambles the platter at the molecular level not a deletion, an erasure of the magnetic orientation itself.
Equipment
Verity Datagauss ZZ001208
Operated
On-site, owned outright
Effect
Unreadable by any recovery method
Phase II
Physical destruction
Shredding
Once degaussed, the drive moves to our shredder. Platters are reduced to jagged fragments. Even if a fragment were recovered, there is no readable magnetic signature left.

Certificate of Destruction
Why standard shredding fails on SSDs.
SSDs and smartphones store data on tiny NAND flash chips. A standard hard-drive shredder can leave those chips physically intact and recoverable. We run a different machine one that reduces media to particles small enough that the chips themselves are pulverized.
SEM Shredder
Model 2 SSD-VK
Designed specifically for solid-state media. Reduces drives, phones, and flash storage to a 2mm particle size small enough that NAND flash chips themselves are destroyed.
Particle size
2mm fine
Supported media
2.5″ SATA SSDs, M.2 NVMe SSDs, M.2 SATA SSDs, mSATA SSDs, USB flash drives, SD/microSD cards, phones & tablets
Output
Serialized Certificate of Destruction
The machinery we own, by name and model.
We list specific equipment because vague claims like industrial-grade machinery are not verifiable. These units operate in our Fresno facility owned outright, not leased, not subcontracted.
