Certified Data Destruction

CBIT’s asset recovery services include secure and certified data destruction in accordance with Department of Defense (DoD) standard 5220.22-M and comply with HIPAA, Gramm-Leach-Bliley and other privacy protection laws. Our secure data destruction procedures are designed to include all types of technologies that contain sensitive information. This spans computer hard drives and servers, to loose CDs and floppy disks. Our customers receive detailed reports and certificate of destruction for each item.

Security Process Flow

CBIT’s data security management process is integrated into our certified procedures and our operations manual. It involves a number of integrated steps that ensure all equipment is physically secure from the time it leaves the customer site until data destruction is documented. We understand that having a centralised and standardised process for all retired IT equipment security activities is crucial to preventing information security breaches.

  Electronics are escorted from the customer location and loaded by our screened personnel into one of our own secured, locked vehicles. Locks are inspected for tampering each time the driver returns to vehicle.

  Upon arrival at CBIT’s facility, equipment is moved directly from the secured vehicle into a high security area where it will be sorted, weighed and inventoried. Each unit is assigned an inventory tag generated from our own bespoke software.

  All equipment is then audited for reuse potential in our high security area.

  Auditors perform customer requested data destruction method for all electronic media.

  All drives are physically destroyed via shredding.

  Customer identifying marks and asset tags are physically removed.

  Once destruction is verified, customers receive detailed certificates of destruction for each piece of electronic media processed.

Secure Data Destruction


CBIT destroy all data drives. There is no risk your data will end up in the wrong hands as all media is shredded into tiny pieces and then recycled.  This should be part of any company’s IT Waste Disposal Management plan.

As the need to recycle obsolete computer equipment grows in importance, the issue of data security becomes more prevalent. 

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive) is the European Community directive 2002/96/EC on waste electrical and electronic equipment.

Together with the RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, became European Law in February 2003, setting collection, recycling and recovery targets for all types of electrical goods.
