Compliant & Secure Data Destruction for Businesses

ITAD Process flowchart

Simplified ITAD Process

Failing to properly destroy data leaves businesses exposed to data breaches, regulatory fines, and reputational damage. Our secure data destruction services ensure full compliance with industry regulations, including:

  • NIST 800-88 Guidelines – Secure data erasure and destruction processes.
  • HIPAA & PCI DSS Compliance – Protection of sensitive healthcare and financial data.
  • GDPR Compliance – Ensuring secure disposal of personally identifiable information.
  • EPA & e-Stewards Compliance – Environmentally responsible recycling of retired assets.

Why Choose Castaway Technologies for Data Destruction?

Unlike many ITAD providers who only perform basic data erasure, we deliver verifiable proof of secure data destruction with detailed, serialized documentation for compliance audits and legal protection.

Our Secure Data Destruction Services Include:

  • Certified Data Sanitization (NIST 800-88 Compliant) – Secure data wiping to prevent unauthorized access.
  • Hard Drive & Media Destruction – Physical shredding and degaussing of hard drives and removable media.
  • On-Site & Off-Site Destruction Options – Securely destroy data at your location or in our facility.
  • Detailed Serialized Reporting – Every storage media device is securely erased or destroyed and tracked by serial number.
  • Certificate of Secure Data Destruction – Proof of compliance for audits, legal verification, and regulatory requirements.
  • Secure Chain of Custody Tracking – Ensuring complete accountability from collection to final disposal.

The Risk of Incomplete Secure Data Destruction

Many service providers and IT teams offer basic data erasure, but do they provide legally defensible proof of secure data destruction? Without proper documentation and NAID AAA-certified processes, businesses face hidden risks:

  • Residual Data Exposure – Standard software wipes may not fully eliminate sensitive data.
  • Regulatory Violations – Lack of proper documentation can result in compliance failures.
  • Reputational Damage – A single data breach from improperly disposed equipment can erode customer trust and damage your brand.

Our Secure Data Destruction Process

We follow a rigorous, fully documented CastTRAC chain-of-custody process to ensure security and compliance:

  1. Collection & Inventory Audit – We log and track all assets by serial number.
  2. Secure Transportation – Assets are securely transported with chain-of-custody documentation.
  3. Data Destruction (Wipe, Shred, or Degauss) – Based on NIST 800-88 standards.
  4. Final Reporting & Certification – Clients receive a Certificate of Secure Data Destruction with serialized proof.
  5. Environmentally Responsible Disposal – Assets are processed following R2 & e-Stewards guidelines to ensure compliance and sustainability.
