Degaussers Provide Secure Erasure

Degaussing is the process of reducing or eliminating an unwanted magnetic field (information) stored on tape and disk media such as computer and laptop hard drives, diskettes, reels and cassettes. A degausser is a device that produces a powerful magnetic field. When exposed to the magnetic field of a degausser, the magnetic memory on a tape or hard disk is erased, or neutralized. Using a properly selected degausser will ensure that information is no longer retrievable. Not all degaussers are equal, let us guide you through the process of selecting the right degausser or destruction solution for your operational needs.

Data Security, Inc. offers electromagnetic degaussers, permanent magnet degaussers, new and factory refurbished options, a degausser recycling program, personalized customer service, training, support, degausser certification, competitive pricing, quality American craftsmanship and the best warranties in the market.

Degauss and Destroy

Overwrite, format and physical destruction does not erase all information recorded on magnetic media. Only a high-quality degausser can guarantee the complete sanitization of your data. Pair that with a hard drive destruction device (a Degauss & Destroy Duo, as seen in the video above) will add an additional layer to your security and assure complete compliance with the highest data disposal regulations.
