Is My Server Data Secure During Decommissioning?
Under HIPAA 45 CFR §164.312 requirements, electronic protected health information on decommissioned servers must be rendered irretrievable. Per NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 guidelines, media sanitization requires verification of purge-level overwrite or physical destruction — STS provides certified destruction meeting both standards for Grand Rapids healthcare and enterprise server infrastructure.
Secure data erasure on every server storage device is mandatory when decommissioning infrastructure in Grand Rapids. According to IBM's 2024 Cost of a Data Breach Report, the average breach costs $4.88 million — making proper server decommissioning essential for West Michigan organizations including Meijer (10,340 employees) and regional healthcare systems.
