Our Security Standard See Data Destruction Process
Why It Matters

Deleted Isn't Destroyed.

A single unwiped hard drive can expose your business to data breaches, compliance failures, and reputational damage. Old laptops, servers, and hard drives don't stop holding sensitive data just because they're switched off.

Customer records, financial data, and internal communications can often be recovered from devices that were "deleted" but never properly destroyed. For businesses handling personal, financial, or government data, this isn't just a risk — it can mean regulatory breaches, contractual failures, or serious reputational harm.

What's at Stake

  • Privacy Act 2020 compliance breaches
  • Customer & employee data exposure
  • Financial and legal liability
  • Loss of client and stakeholder trust

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you ensure my data is actually destroyed, not just deleted?

We use YouWipe, a NATO and Common Criteria EAL+3 certified erasure platform. This goes beyond a standard delete or format — it renders data completely unrecoverable and generates an auditable certificate as proof.

Is this compliant with New Zealand privacy law?

Yes. Our data security process is designed to support compliance with the Privacy Act 2020 and general data protection best practice for New Zealand businesses.

Can I get proof my data was destroyed?

Yes. Every device processed generates a certificate of destruction, available on request for your compliance and audit records.

What happens if a device can't be securely wiped (e.g. physically damaged)?

Devices that can't be securely erased are physically destroyed instead, ensuring data can never be recovered regardless of the device's condition.
