Many large companies have come to the conclusion that deleting data isn’t enough to provide proper security for obsolete hardware and equipment. This is because every software solution for eliminating old files ends up getting cracked. Even overwriting old data several times is no longer a foolproof way of making it unrecoverable. For this reason, companies and government agencies have turned to solid state data destruction to make sure that unwanted data truly stays gone.
This is a common practice among governments and large organizations. Some mid-sized and smaller companies are still using “soft” deletion methods for clearing data from hard drives and other equipment. This can result in expensive data breaches when people with the right tools find discarded hard drives in the trash or even in company storerooms. If there is a lawsuit, opposing lawyers can also subpoena equipment that companies had thought was useless and recover data once believed to be long gone.
With solid state data destruction, there is no need to fear such scenarios. This process physically destroys the storage media and turns it into a crushed mass of tiny pieces. No data recovery tool can restore this tiny pieces of information. The practice of hard drive destruction eliminates the problem of unwanted data restoration.
