Shredding and ITAD Models ≠ Data Protection

The previous industry model for IT asset and data destruction is no longer compliant and is shifting from one focused on used end-point data storage device remarketing, to one focused on the protection of the critical data they contain. The awareness of the new compliance requirements has grown, but there has been a lack of any significant innovation in the data destruction space.

Until now, with TechR2’s Tear-A-Byte® process for the destruction of critical data on end-point storage devices as the only patented, comprehensive and 100% compliant data destruction process.

With multiple locations worldwide, TechR2 is a disruptive technology company - patent holder and software developer focused on destroying critical data on end-point storage devices to ensure our client’s compliance with all global data privacy laws and industry standards.

For Datacenter and Enterprise Environments
Not Secure
What
Outdated data destruction methods are not complaint
  • Traditional ITAD and shredding models fail today’s strict data destruction regulatory requirements
  • Key requirements of GDPR, the NIST Standard and other global regulatory rules for data destruction make clear that controllers of data (that’s you!) must:
  • Ensure work is completed onsite within the 4 walls
  • Have access to IT asset Inventory data within 72 hours
  • Choose the most risk averse processes to follow
  • Ensure process includes Track, Contain, Dispose, Document and Verify steps
  • Enforce a dual authorization program be followed (sanitizer and verifier)
Regulation Tsunami
Why
Regulations for protection of data are proliferating worldwide
  • The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union has already levied tens of millions in fines
  • California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) became enforceable in 2020 and has generated its first-class action lawsuit
  • The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Standard which governs all US Federal agencies and 35 states
  • The new Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD) which just became enforceable in 2020
  • The Cybersecurity Maturity Model (CMMC) certification based on NIST Cybersecurity framework required for all Federal contracts Sept. 2020
