There a several advantages to shredding on-site. Customers are welcome to observe the shredding process for their own peace of mind; and we offer a dual-audit service.

Our Engineers undertake a detailed audit when processing each data item and piece of hardware; which forms the basis of the Evidence Certificate.

Data Sanitisation is distinct from degaussing and data erasure. Galaxy uses sanitisation methods compliant with the NIST 800-88 Rev 1 Standard.
