Our Process
Our Innovative Process
Phiston’s products were engineered in response to the rapid growth of information technology
and the inherent rise of data breaches across multiple industries. We understand the standards that government and private entities must follow to protect and destroy sensitive information.
We internally employ passionate research and design staff and top-notch engineers that continue to produce an array of innovative technologies for destroying data storage media.
Our product line shows our continued commitment to ever-changing technology and data security demands. We have the only hassle-free automated crushing systems widely reviewed as a necessity in large organizations. Phiston carries a wide array of products, from portable desktop destruction destroyers to enterprise-level data center destruction machines.
We have solutions that can securely destroy hard disk drives (HDDs), solid-state drives (SSDs), laptops, switches, circuit boards, flash drives, CDs, DVDs, Blu-Ray discs, magnetic stripe cards, PDAs, cell phones, and more.
Why Phiston?
Phiston pursues extensive research, creates innovative products, and repeatedly dominates in the niche information security market for media destroyers that:
- Are powerful and rugged, yet portable and simple to operate;
- Are designed to meet and exceed industry standards for media destruction and media sanitization;
- Meet stringent regulatory standards for worker health and safety, workplace air quality, and waste containment and disposal;
- Will not contaminate or adversely impact the operating environment of data centers and other clean rooms.
What is the Phiston Difference?
Our difference focuses on three essential factors; quality, functionality, and reliability. We are able to provide on-site, at-source media destruction by designing and building superior performance and safety characteristics into our products.
The difference is that Phiston has pioneered the advent of safe, effective in-house, high-security data destruction devices. We continue to research and evolve our technologies to adapt to the always-evolving landscape of modern data storage mediums.
Our products ensure our customers comply with the latest and most stringent NIST 800-88 standards.
Why is Phiston so Successful at this?
We’re so successful because our approach is effective, creative, and detailed. We’ve created products that allow data managers to install our destroyers as close as physically possible to the point at which old data storage media are taken out of service.
Phiston’s products are deployed across some of the largest data centers in the world. Our powerful on-site destruction tools empower businesses to maintain full life cycle stewardship over their sensitive data and storage media. More importantly, the process of in-house destruction eliminates the risk of handing media over to a third-party contractor for destruction or indefinitely stockpiling them on-site for later disposal. As a whole, this eliminates any discrepancy or danger that could come with a third-party company assisting. Unfortunately, recycled media are often surreptitiously repurposed and sold online with sensitive data still intact.
What is the Phiston Edge?
Phiston has distinguished itself in the high-security data destruction market with patented products such as MediaVise® crushers and MediaDice® disintegrators designed and engineered to surpass any competing technologies in the market today.
The products focus on five key performance areas:
- Awareness of media destruction to regulatory standards
- Attentiveness to workplace and operator health and safety
- Compactness and portability of machines and ease of deployment
- Simplicity and ease of operation
- Safe waste containment and disposal
Phiston’s ability to deliver innovative, market-powered solutions has allowed us to establish a reputation of innovation both nationally and internationally. As we continue to develop unique technologies in these fields, Phiston promises to constantly deliver outstanding service and quality products while remaining proactive, humane, and ethical in our approach.
