If like many governments and organisations around the world you need a degausser that has NSA, CESG or NATO certification, then Verity Systems range of government certified degaussers provides you with the maximum security required.
Government agencies are required to manage their data security to detailed specifications which would require them to buy an approved degausser. Safe and secure data disposal is critical within the military which is why the Department of Defense (DoD) also adheres to these guidelines.
In addition if an organisation is involved in managing highly sensitive or confidential information such as financial, medical, education, personal and legal information, they must be vigilant in how they deal with the disposal of such information and the use of an approved degausser would be highly recommended.
Security of data is also a legal requirement under Australia Piracy Acts.
For complete physical data security, please look at our physical hard drive destroyer - the VS7000, tested and used by the NSA and the DoD.
SDD Master NSA Government Approved, High Security Hard Drive Degausser |
NSA Approval The NSA is an agency of the US government which is responsible for protecting U.S. government communications and information systems. The NSA publishes guidance on the sanitization (erasure), declassification, and release of storage devices for disposal or recycling. Within this, the NSA publish the EPL-Degausser (Evaluated Products list - Degausser) which specifies the current degaussers that have been evaluated against and found to satisfy the requirements for erasure of magnetic storage devices that retain sensitive or classified data. CESG Approval CESG is the Information Assurance (IA) arm of GCHQ and aims to protect and promote the vital interests of the UK by providing advice and assistance on the security of communications and electronic data. The CESG Standard has two levels of degaussing: Lower Level - for RESTRICTED and below. This means any magnetic media (holding RESTRICTED or less) may be regarded as NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED after being degaussed. Higher Level - for CONFIDENTIAL and above. Magnetic media that is CONFIDENTIAL and above may still be degaussed but the degaussed media is subject to additional handling requirements (i.e. destruction). |
