Secure, HIPAA Compliant NAID-AAA Certified Data Destruction

Protect Your Information with Industry-Leading Data Security

Every device you retire contains sensitive data that, if improperly handled, can quickly become a significant organizational risk. With data breaches continuing to dominate headlines, secure data destruction is not optional – it is a critical component of a sound security and compliance strategy.

End-to-End Protection You Can Trust

At Sycamore, data security is foundational to everything we do. We maintain a fully documented, secure chain of custody from the moment assets leave your facility through final disposition, ensuring continuous control, visibility, and accountability at every step. Our NAID AAA–certified, HIPAA-compliant processing environment is purpose-built to protect confidential information using rigorously audited processes for both digital sanitization and physical destruction.

  • Secure Chain of Custody: Our trained removal specialists complete federal background checks, undergo random drug testing, and receive extensive NAID AAA–aligned data security training. Assets remain tracked and controlled throughout transport and processing to eliminate exposure risk.
  • Comprehensive Data Wiping: We utilize industry-leading wiping protocols that meet or exceed NIST 800-88 standards, ensuring data is permanently and verifiably erased before any device is considered for reuse.
  • Onsite Physical Destruction: Any storage media that cannot be sanitized to our strict standards is physically shredded within our secure facility, rendering data unrecoverable.
  • Complete Audit Documentation: Clients receive serialized inventory reporting, detailed processing records, and certificates of data destruction – delivering the defensible documentation required for regulatory compliance, internal governance, and audit readiness.

At Sycamore, we approach data protection with the seriousness it demands. Our disciplined processes, certified infrastructure, and security-first culture provide the confidence that your information is protected, your risk is minimized, and your organization remains fully compliant.
