NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 Alignment

NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 defines Clear, Purge, and Destroy as the federal sanitization categories for media containing sensitive data, deferring to IEEE 2883 for technique detail. The standard requires physical destruction to "render Target Data recovery infeasible using state of the art laboratory techniques," the criteria STS hard drive shredding meets for Clermont organizations. Destruction procedures also satisfy DoD 5220.22-M and HIPAA 45 CFR §164.312 technical safeguard requirements.

Hard drives are transported to our 200,000 sq ft processing operation where physical shredding to 1/4 inch particle size occurs before certified downstream processing at verified smelters.

When evaluating hard drive shredding providers, IT security managers at organizations like Orlando Health South Lake Hospital prioritize chain of custody documentation and defensible destruction certificates for HIPAA 45 CFR §164.312 audit requirements.
