Sanitisation & Data Security

Here is the reason why we recommend Hard drive Sanitisation . You probably know already that deleting a file doesn't really delete it because you can visit the Recycle Bin on your desktop and get it back. Well, it's similar even at the lower levels of data storage systems. When you "permanently" delete a file the disk simply removes the marker for the location of the file, but not the file itself. Why? Because it takes time to overwrite the file. It's much more efficient to just cut off the head. Even Microsoft Window's format doesn't completely erase the data, because there is no overwriting. It simply checks that every part of the disk is in working condition and tells you it's ready to be rewritten with your files. But that doesn't remove the data completely. Sensitive data such as customer, financial and health information are to be protected under the Australian law. It is your company's responsibility to make sure that that data is secured or they have been permanently erased.

The only way is to re-write the data to make it physically impossible to retrieve any information previously stored on the Hard Drive.
The only method used by us complies by the DEPARTMENT OF DEFENCE SANITISING STANDARD. The hard drive data is overwritten up to 7 times with different characters making the data impossible to retrieve. You cannot make it more secure than this.

Hard Destruction.

If you required even more data security than DEPARTMENT OF DEFENCE SANITISING STANDARD we can physically destroy them.
