Data fuels the operations, decisions, and processes of modern businesses. The amount of data generated each day continues to rise, giving way to the need to delete it permanently. However, it’s not a straightforward initiative. To ensure secure data erasure that is compliant with data protection regulations, you’ll need to approach this with data sanitisation.
Our data sanitisation process and secure chain of custody is accredited to the highest international standard for information security—ISO 27001. Every device in our care is treated with precision as it moves through our processes.
We are ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems accredited. We refurbish and sell assets to non-profit organisations and global partners, and when assets no longer have re-sale value, we make sure parts are recycled correctly so they can be used to build something new.
We maintain a secure chain of custody over all equipment in our care, from the moment we collect assets from your premises to when they are recycled or in the next user’s hands. Our warehouses are protected by multiple layers of security.
Every person that works for ACT Logistics, whether a direct employee or contracted partner, goes through an extensive training and vetting process before we engage them to begin work with us.
Data sanitisation refers to permanently and irreversibly destroying data on IT assets, including hard drives, mobile devices, and other storage media. ACT Logistics specialises in data sanitisation services and decommissioning computers and digital devices.
Our methods adhere to industry-leading standards and are ISO 27001 certified.
Our solutions enable:
• Secure data erasure
• Cryptographic erasure
• IT asset disposal and IT recycling
With our data sanitisation services for businesses, you can be confident in the complete elimination of your sensitive information, with no trace or chance for recovery.
We take care to remove all forms of personal data on all IT devices. We use trusted, skilled technicians to implement our ISO 27001-accredited processes.
Our trained warehouse professionals clean devices, taking care to remove any tags or external labels that can identify a device’s previous owner or organisation.
For assets that cannot be re-sold, we degauss the hard drives—applying an intense magnetic field that destroys all traces of data.
When devices have been degaussed, we then shred them so there is no way anyone can retrieve anything other than some recycled material from the remains.
We can apply the same data sanitisation process at secure facilities as in our warehouse. Our degaussing and shredding equipment is portable, so we can sanitise data at your location.
You can store retired hard drives securely while you wait for a collection. When the bin is full, we collect it and sanitise the drives.
