The V660 HDD Evo is a high energy, degausser especially designed
to eliminate all data from computer, laptop and server hard drives.
The V660 will also erase data from high coercivity tape, including
LTO, DLT, Super DLT, AIT and more. Hard drives are completely
erased in just 20 seconds, making it the fastest hard drive degausser
available.
Easy & Safe Operation
Operation of the V660 could not be easier. Simply place the hard
drive into the support, close the lid and either push the Degauss
button on the control panel or use the infrared remote control.
Each hard drive is completely erased in only four passes.
Meeting the Standards
The NSA recommends that hard drives are sanitized (erased) with
a degausser. The V660 offers the quickest, most cost effective
solution.
Secure & Safe Operation
With safety in mind and to meet the latest ICNIRP Magnetic Exposure
Guidelines, the V660 can be operated remotely via the infrared
remote control. The unit can also be locked in the manual or remote
operation position by removing the key preventing possible
misuse.
Who Recommends Hard Drive Degaussing?
As part of their guidelines for the sanitization of magnetic media,
degaussing is recommended by the following organizations:
National Institute of Standards & Technology
Department Of Defence
GCHQ (British Government)
Regulatory Compliance
Strict industry standards & government regulations are in
place, that force organizations to mitigate the risk of unauthorized
exposure of confidential corporate & government data. These
regulations include HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability
Act); FACTA (The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of
2003); GLB ( Gramm-Leach Bliley); Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOx); and
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards ( PCI DSS).
Security of data is also a legal requirement under the European
Unions Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC) & the UKs
Data Protection Act 1998, ensuring the complete removal of all
data from redundant equipment is essential to maintain the security
and integrity of data. In addition, many standards insist that
the process of data destruction is fully traceable. Using a degausser
to sanitize media provides a fully auditable procedure.
Note: After degaussing, hard drives (and some media) are not
reusable.
