Is Student Data Safe During School Electronics Recycling?

Under FERPA requirements, schools must ensure that student educational records on retired devices are rendered irretrievable prior to disposal. Per NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 guidelines, media sanitization requires verification of purge-level overwrite or physical destruction. STS provides certified destruction supporting both FERPA compliance processes and NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 requirements for Apollo Beach schools.

Per IBM's 2025 Cost of Data Breach Report, the average breach costs $7.42 million, making certified data destruction essential when retiring school electronics in Apollo Beach.
