Eco-Friendly Data Shredding Practices
Vyta is committed to Sustainability. After completing the onsite shredding process, we ensure the recycling of all shredding debris.
Shredding debris may contain recyclable materials like aluminium or copper, which we can repurpose to help create new equipment. Furthermore, this process also helps to reduce the carbon footprint of the original device.
Enhancing Data Security with an Encrypted Asset Register
More than 80% of our clients request that their items are tracked as part of the shredding process, ensuring that they have confirmation of the data destruction of individual devices.
To facilitate this request, we create an encrypted asset register for our clients’ highly confidential hard drives and storage media.
Additionally, the register facilitates effortless searching by media type (e.g. hard disks, media tapes, CDs), asset tag (serial number or other identifiers), quantity, and the date and time of shredding.
