NIST 800-88 Rev. 1 & HIPAA Compliance
Per R2v3:2020 certification standards, downstream tracking must document materials through R2-certified final processors — STS provides complete audit-ready documentation. Under HIPAA 45 CFR §164.312 requirements, PHI on disposed devices must be rendered permanently irretrievable. NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 mandates purge-level overwrite or physical destruction. STS meets both standards with DoD 5220.22-M documentation for every Tampa electronics recycling engagement.
