Hard Drive Destruction

For maximum data protection, you should authorize permanent destruction of your hard drives after your documents are shredded. Simply deleting your files doesn’t prevent hackers from restoring information and stealing sensitive documents. We can help you stay one step ahead of hackers!

Hard drive destruction permanently destroys your data and prevents unauthorized access. It ensures that no one can access your information from that hard drive again. Record Nations Palo Alto partners with hard drive destruction professionals to protect your private data.

We are happy to answer any questions that you have about any step in the process of managing, storing and selectively destroying documents.
