Barcode Scanning Benefits for On-Site Computer Tape & Hard Drive Destruction Services
We’ve been thinking about all the different ways we’ve been helping our clients get the best service for the best value and noticed a trend towards the need for more accountability in data security in last few years. Often, several different departments (whether it’s Legal, IT, Upper Management or other) are on the line to ensure 100% verifiable security in the data destruction process.
In the fight against loose security measures and potentially lost or misplaced media (which can literally cost a company millions in the wrong situation), Mobile Data Shredding has developed a valuable option. For clients needing the highest level of verifiable security and data destruction tracking for your Computer Tape & Hard Drive (media) destruction projects is in our Destruction Inventory Reporting Service.
That report is effectively a specific post-mortem account of all the media designated and demolished.
As a result, your company’s security, legal, facilities, IT, and management teams will all be satisfied with the release from liability and comfort that all that retired media isn’t lingering around any longer.
Most every Tape Cartridge has a unique vol/ser # barcoded label. Hard Drives have them, too.
As part of the staging and logging process, these labels are scanned, using our programmable barcode scanners, and then downloaded to a laptop computer, where the Destruction Inventory Report is created in Excel format. The report is a listing of every single vol/ser # scanned and destroyed.
Once we’ve completed the media destruction you’re presented with our Certificate of Destruction including a general description of the media destroyed, date, time and signed by an authorized Mobile Data Shredding employee.
At the same time you can have your Destruction Inventory Report, with specific details, via email or stored onto a flash drive.
That makes the entire process complete. Secure … On-Site … Fast … Safe … Efficient … Supervised … Detailed … Proof-Positive … Economical.
When contacting us for your media shredding projects, don’t forget to ask about our enhanced Destruction Inventory Reporting Services.
