What Is Electronic Media?

Electronic media is defined as any electronically generated storage device that is used to record information, including but not limited to hard disks/hard drives, magnetic tapes, compact discs, videotapes, audiotapes, and removable storage such as floppy and zip disks.

If your media disposal process includes erasing, reformatting, or wiping your hard drives, your customers’ and your company’s reputations are still vulnerable. Total destruction by shredding is the only way to ensure data security for electronic media.

Benefits of Media Destruction

Professional media destruction offers greater security, efficiency, and peace of mind compared to attempting to destroy media in-house.

• Verified compliance and documentation
  
  TrueShred provides a Certificate of Destruction, confirming that your media was securely destroyed on-site and in accordance with data protection standards.

• Saves time and labor
  
  Items such as computer backups, VHS tapes, and cassette tapes are difficult and time-consuming to destroy manually. Professional shredding eliminates this burden and allows your team to focus on core business operations.

• Maximum data security
  
  On-site media destruction ensures your materials never leave your location before being destroyed. This guarantees full control of the process and eliminates the risk of data exposure.

• Permanent data elimination
  
  When absolute data irretrievability is required, professional destruction by TrueShred ensures sensitive information cannot be reconstructed or recovered.

Why Destroy Uniforms & ID Badges?

Don’t put your company or workplace at risk. Simply throwing away old uniforms and ID badges can make them available to anyone who takes the time to go through your trash. You don’t want these items to get into the wrong hands and possibly damage your reputation. Our high-powered mobile shredders can destroy work uniforms, ID badges, and other proprietary items that you don’t want members of the public to be able to access.
