How Is Apollo Beach Mail-In Equipment Processed?
According to NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 guidelines, media sanitization requires purge-level overwrite or physical destruction for data to be considered irrecoverable, STS applies this standard to every Apollo Beach mail-in shipment. Each device is logged on arrival, serial numbers captured, and all data-bearing media processed to Rev. 2 requirements at our R2v3 certified facility. Processing documentation supports HIPAA 45 CFR §164.312 obligations for electronic PHI, as well as SOX and GLBA audit requirements. For higher-security needs, our Apollo Beach hard drive shredding service provides on-site physical destruction with witnessed verification.
