Under HIPAA 45 CFR §164.312, electronic protected health information on disposed devices must be rendered irretrievable. Per NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1, media sanitization requires verification of purge-level overwrite or physical destruction — STS provides certified destruction meeting both federal standards. Our R2v3 certification ensures downstream tracking through final processing with complete DOD 5220.22-M documentation.
