NSA-Approved
Hard Drive Destruction
Degausser
The DocShop’s T-4 Degausser machine exceeds the data destruction requirements specified in NIST and in many legislative mandates such as FACTA, HIPAA, GLB, DPA, etc. It destroys data on hard disc drives and other magnetic recording media.
This new degausser has received NSA approval and complies with DoD requirements for destroying classified information on magnetic media. Government agencies within DoD, DHS, and DOE and government contractors confidently use the T-4 to destroy all of their electronic data.
Compliance With the T-4 Degausser
Secure Destruction of Sensitive Data
The T-4 Degausser meets compliance standards for government mandates that require complete elimination of sensitive information stored on magnetic media prior to re-use or disposal, including the following:
- GLBA (Gramm-Leave-Bliley Act)
- PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry) Data Security Standard
- NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) Guidelines for Media Sanitisation: NIST 800-36, NIST 800-88
- HIPAA (Health Information Portability and Accountability Act)
- PIPEDA (Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act)
As the very high gauss rating is several times stronger than the read/write heads in a hard drive or tape drive, this degausser is more efficient and much faster than software-based programs.
The T-4 Degausser offers patented new degaussing technology with NSA approval to provide the highest gauss rating on the market today at an Effective Magnetic Field (EMF) of 4 Tesla or 40,000 gauss field spread: a 20,000 Gauss positive field and a 20,000 Gauss negative field.
Since it does not rely on software, the T-4 also has the ability to erase failed or damaged hard drives and tapes completely and permanently, regardless of the operating system.
