Nortek Expands Secure and Professional Media Sanitization and Data Destruction Services

Nortek expands secure and professional media sanitization / data destruction services to public and private corporations as well as individual customers. The purpose of this service is two-fold. First and most important is the ultimate erasure of any and all readable data on a media device. Think about it - you cannot afford any doubt in this area. Nortek has the NDA policies and data handling procedures in place to provide the assurance and peace of mind that your data will never be exposed. Not ever. Problem solved.

A second purpose can be the added bonus of hardware reclamation. This can be used to recover the initial cost of the service in the first place. But this really is a secondary purpose when you consider the unbearable cost of private data being exposed to unauthorized sources.

Nortek is uniquely suited to offer media sanitization services. First of all, we actually build hard drives and other data storage peripherals. This gives us a unique insight into the inner workings of these devices. We also provide renowned data recovery services to customers world-wide - this allows us to prove and verify our media sanitization services are 100% successful. We have the production facilities to handle ANY volume of shipment and can custom tailor our services to your exact requirements.

We have always referred to DoD Milspec 5220.22-M as being the widely recognized standard for clearing and sanitizing media devices. This document outlines certain policies and techniques whereby a storage device can be considered sanitized (no possibility of any user data recovery). However, the key is in the implementation - "overwrite all addressable locations" means just that - you cannot leave a single sector unwritten! Who better to perform this task than the experts at Nortek.
