Data Killers offers the ultimate tape degaussing service for quickly, securely and completely destroying any quantity of tapes and other magnetic media. We offer on-site degaussing and off-site tape degaussing in our highly secure facilities. Secure shipping options are available for customers who wish to take advantage of our off-site services.

For customers requiring destruction of classified materials, degaussing tapes then shredding them is the only NSA approved process. Our degaussers are NSA approved and annually re-certified by an outside third party. This two-step process to degauss tapes then shred them satisfies all DoD regulations and guidelines for tape destruction.

Tape degaussing changes the alignment of the magnetic domain where the data is stored, thus “erasing” the data. Unlike hard drives, some tapes can be re-used after degaussing. Our on-site data destruction service allows our customers to watch our process for backup tape degaussing right at their facility. Our unique process along with cleared personnel provides the highest level of security.

We offer assured compliance with standardized policies, procedures and training which guarantee destruction exceeding mandatory legal guidelines.

Our nationally recognized Certificate of Destruction will suffice for all compliance purposes.
