Secure Data Destruction for Centers

Trusted by the Largest Tech Organizations in the World

End-of-life for hardware does not mean end-of-risk for the data it once held. Even after servers and storage devices are powered down or appear to be wiped, sensitive data can remain on them. Data centers must be able to demonstrate verifiable records of data destruction and disposition to auditors and regulators.

Phiston Technologies designs, engineers and manufactures secure data destruction solutions. Our specialized technologies bring the destruction process in-house so you can ensure that all sensitive data is irreversibly destroyed from decommissioned media.

Why Trust Phiston Technologies?

At Phiston Technologies, we have been developing data destruction equipment for decades and understand the unique security demands of hyper-scale data centers. Our patented systems are trusted by some of the world’s most secure organizations because they deliver uncompromising performance. 

Our MediaDice® Disintegrators shred media down to incredibly fine particle sizes, some as small as 2mm x 2mm. This helps you achieve verifiable, NIST 800-88-compliant physical data destruction.

From our unique auto-jam recovery feature to our patented shredding bags and fully auto-loading SSD disintegrators, our machines are built for the relentless, high-volume demands of your data center.

Eliminate Risk With On-Premises High-Speed Hard Drive Crushing

On-premises destruction is the logical solution for a manager who needs absolute control. Our equipment enables you to maintain the chain of custody, reducing the risk of losing visibility when outsourcing. When you partner with us, you work with advanced hard drive-crushing technology that allows you to own the entire destruction life cycle.

Industrial-Grade Media Disintegrators for Data Centers

Phiston Technologies offers reliable, long-term automated SSD destruction for hyper-scale data centers and high-throughput hard drive destruction systems. Our solutions allow you to process hundreds or thousands of drives per hour, reducing a week’s worth of work into a single afternoon.

MediaDice® Series for High-Throughput Disintegration

MediaDice® disintegrators obliterate media into small particles. For mixed-media scenarios, models such as the MediaDice® All Media Disintegrator A2 or MediaDice® Combo Disintegrator can process all types of media, including HDDs, SSDs, AI hardware, and more. Our products help deliver physical evidence of destruction that you can show to auditors.

This equipment is designed for the secure disintegration of a wider range of media. Some of their superior capabilities include:

  • Patented knife mill technology: This system uses a series of precision-engineered knives to shred and disintegrate media into very small particles. This achieves complete data destruction and solid-state media disintegration.
  • Multistage disintegration: For models like the MediaDice® All Media Disintegrator, a multistage process progressively reduces the media to the desired particle size. This patented approach works across a range of material types.

Phiston-HDD Series for High-Speed Hard Drive Destroyers

Phiston-HDD destroyers are powerful, efficient tools for bending and breaking platter-based hard drives. Models include the Rackmount Destroyer, which fits seamlessly into your existing environment and integrates directly into a server rack for maximum convenience.

Our patented technology makes Phiston-HDD Series systems unique. Key features include:

  • Hydraulic crushing system: Select models feature superior crushing capabilities, mangling and destroying the internal components of an HDD, including platters, controllers, and read heads.
  • Durable crushing plates: Our patented design keeps destroyers effective over a long life cycle without sharpening or replacement, delivering consistent performance and reliability in high-volume environments.

I’m pleased to share that the new crusher (MV-HDD) is performing exceptionally, significantly better than our old one. It handles hard drives efficiently, including IDE magnetic spinners and SATA drives.

It’s also great to see that, as per the manual, the crusher can handle cellular phones, adding to its versatility. The processing time is efficient, taking just 33 to 35 seconds per load.

Overall, this crusher is proving to be both effective and efficient.

The performance of the MD-HTP-A2 from Phiston has created a need in Sweden,
and I must say the upgrades they have done recently have been fabulous.

Phiston has been a fantastic partner for us, they listen to their customer, invent and simplify to our needs and stand behind their product; in my opinion, they are the only true high-volume media destruction game in town.

former AWS Media Risk Mitigation Manager

The Phiston team was not only able to provide a product well within our timeline goals, but they also worked closely with us through the proof of concept process, allowing us to fully understand and provide input to drive exactly what we wanted.

Ali, Raul, and their teams partnered closely with us from start to finish and delivered the solutions we needed to address Hard Drives, SSD’s & Flash media, and we now have a solution to shred network assets.
