The HIPAA Security Rule requires that covered entities implement policies and procedures to address the final disposition of electronic PHI and/or the hardware or electronic media on which it is stored, as well as to implement procedures for removal of electronic PHI from electronic media before the media are made available for re-use. See 45 CFR 164.310(d)(2)(i) and (ii).

SOX Sections 302 and 404 require companies to establish robust internal controls to ensure the integrity of financial reporting. This includes controls over how data is archived and destroyed.

The Safeguards Rule compels financial institutions to develop, implement, and maintain a comprehensive information security program that includes administrative, technical, and physical safeguards. Data destruction is an integral part of this security program.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a Federal law that protects the confidentiality of student information. FERPA protects personally identifiable information (PII) from students’ education records from disclosure without written consent from the parent or “eligible student” (a student who is 18 years of age, or who is attending a post-secondary institution), unless an exception to that consent requirement applies.  Learn more about best practices in data destruction that comply with FERPA.

Securis recognizes the absolute need for proper domestic recycling services. Securis recycles 100% of all materials that are received at its facility in the US. Securis does not export hazardous materials to developing countries as defined by the BAN. By complying with BAN, Securis exceeds U.S. federal mandates and instead is compliant with the widely adopted international standard.

All downstream processors receiving shredded material from Securis must complete an Agreement for Responsible Disposal of Sensitive Materials. At this time, all magnetic media is incinerated using the cleanest methods available. Smelting documentation can be provided upon request. All metal-based material is sent to a domestic-based refinery, and refined according to metal type.
