The standards a client's counsel will ask about by name
Three safeguards back every legal digital media destruction job: an audited standard, a documented custody trail, and serialized proof of the result.
NAID AAA Data Destruction
NAID AAA certified Leesburg data destruction covers the work that matters most to a firm retiring drives that hold client records. A serialized record accompanies every device.
NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2
NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 sets three methods: Clear, Purge, and Destroy. It describes sanitization as a process that "renders access to the target data on media infeasible for a given level of effort." STS destruction meets or exceeds it.
Chain of Custody
Serialized logs, secured containers, and GPS tracked transport document each device from pickup to final processing. Law firm administrators typically expect serialized certificates of destruction for client inquiries, included in every STS engagement.
