Tape & Media Destruction Service

Tape Drive and Media Destruction : Physical destruction for every format that holds sensitive data

  • Backup tapes hold full system snapshots. Deletion and overwriting do not meet GDPR requirements. We destroy them to a certified standard with a full audit trail.
  • Video and CCTV footage is personal data under UK data protection law. Unwiped tapes create liability long after the cameras are removed.
  • CDs and DVDs are easy to snap but the data survives. Physical shredding removes any possibility of recovery.
  • Floppy disks are decades old and frequently overlooked in storage. The data remains readable and remains your legal responsibility.
  • External hard drives hold enormous volumes of data. Formatting does not destroy it. Certified physical destruction does.
  • USB drives and memory sticks are the most commonly misplaced devices in any office. Only destruction holds up under an ICO investigation.
