NYS Data Privacy Regulations Require That You Destroy All Personally Sensitive Data Prior To The Disposal Of Obsolete Data Assets

IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT YOUR INTERNAL DATA SECURITY NEEDS

The NYS Electronic Waste Recycling and Reuse Act specifically states that NYS authorized electronic recycling facilities have “no” data liability.

Recognizing your significant data privacy regulatory responsibility you must make sure that your IT asset disposal vendor is a qualified secure data destruction service provider.

DATA PRIVACY COMPLIANT HARD DRIVE DESTRUCTION

Federal (HIPAA, GLBA), Industry (PCI) and State (ID Theft) data privacy regulations have highly specific requirements for the destruction of obsolete personally sensitive data. They require that the data be destroyed according to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800-88 “Guidelines for Media Sanitization”. They further state that third-party data destruction services must meet required vendor due diligence standards.

Back Thru The Future® provides NIST approved onsite hard drive shredding and degaussing services. BTTF is among a select few licensed electronic recycling businesses that is also NAID AAA certified as a secure data destruction operation for both plant-based and mobile hard drive shredding. NAID certification, as a recognized industry security standard, serves to satisfy vendor due diligence requirements.

New NYS DFS Regulation 23 NYCRR 500 Effective 3/1/17 Requires All NYS Based Financial Services Businesses to Reassess Your Data Destruction Procedure.

WE SHRED SOLID STATE DRIVES (SSD)!

Onsite shredding is the most effective method for sanitizing SSD and solid state cards. Because of the very small size of solid state circuitry, NIST destruction guidelines require a maximum shred size of 1/2 inches. Back Thru The Future is one of only a very limited number of onsite hard drive shredding services that can meet this shred size standard. Today, most mobile computing devices utilize solid state storage. Server hard drives are rapidly incorporating solid state data storage components. The sanitization of solid state storage devices is becoming a significant data security challenge. Adopting onsite SSD shredding as your universal data destruction process eliminates the technical challenges of sanitizing solid state media and provides a one-stop solution to all of your data destruction needs.

THE SMART WAY TO RECYCLE YOUR HARD DRIVES

As a Federal and State licensed electronic recycling facility, we provide a Certificate of Destruction that is also a regulatory required environmental compliance document. Our proprietary materials sorting process allows us to recapture nearly 100% of the materials used in the manufacturing of a hard drive, making this a highly efficient method for recycling your hard drives as well as a data security best practice.
