Our Akron data destruction services implement NIST-compliant methodologies including certified overwrite, degaussing, and physical shredding with complete verification documentation for every device processed.
Under FISMA and OMB Circular A-130 requirements, federal and state agencies must document IT asset disposition through verified chain-of-custody records. STS provides serial-number-specific certificates of destruction formatted for FISMA annual review reporting and Inspector General assessment requirements, giving Akron government agencies audit-ready proof of compliant IT disposal.
For media requiring maximum security assurance, Akron hard drive shredding services include NAID AAA certified physical destruction with witnessed verification options.
