On-Site Data Destruction

“We go on-site for our data erasure jobs for the military. That way, they can observe the data erasure processes and confirm that everything is destroyed to DoD standards,” says Jenik. This is done through degaussing, shredding, and microshredding, or a combination of them.

Data erasure for the military is necessary for classified storage devices and drives. “There are also some large or unusual electronic devices that occasionally need to be destroyed. We work with our military customers to find creative ways to protect the data on every type of electronic device.”

Securis has also worked with NAS Oceana Dam Neck Annex, Joint Base Little Creek, Langley Air Force Base, and Ft. Eustis Army Base. “Everyone knows about the rivalry between the Army and the Navy,” Jenik says. “Luckily they agree that working with Securis is a no-brainer.”
