When it comes to safeguarding your sensitive information, simply deleting files isn’t enough.
At SBC Recycle, we specialize exclusively in hard drive shredding, ensuring that every hard drive is physically destroyed and rendered completely unreadable.
🚨 The Problem:
Not all Hard Drive destruction methods are created equal. Many shredders on the market are not designed to handle hard drives properly, leaving behind particles that are too large to ensure complete data destruction. If your recycler isn’t using an industrial shredder capable of reducing Hard Drives to 1/4-inch particles or smaller, sensitive data—such as customer records, financial data, and passwords—could still be recoverable.
⚠️ The Risk:
An improperly shredded Hard Drive in the wrong hands can lead to serious consequences. Cybercriminals can extract data, putting your company at risk of breaches, financial losses, and legal penalties. Failure to comply with HIPAA, GDPR, and NIST 800-88 could result in hefty fines and reputational damage. Without proper Hard Drive destruction down to 1/4-inch particles, your organization remains vulnerable to cyber threats and compliance violations.
✅ The Solution:
At SBC Recycle, our industrial shredders are designed specifically for Hard Drive destruction, reducing drives to 1/4-inch or smaller particles—far exceeding industry security standards. Unlike software wipes or degaussing, our shredding process ensures total data elimination.
