Costly data breaches are happening every day. It is critical for organizations to properly dispose of electronic media to protect sensitive information and stay in compliance with numerous State and Federal Regulations. The use of software programs to erase data is inadequate and leaves private information recoverable to hackers and data thieves. The physical destruction of hard drives is also insufficient since it is possible to retrieve information from a mere piece of magnetic media that has not been degaussed. Proton Data Security is committed to helping you protect your confidential information with their line of Degaussers and Optical Media Destroyers. Proton Data Security’s products meet or exceed both NSA and United States Department of Defense guidelines for destruction of electronic media and sensitive data.

Proton Data Security, LLC is a minority owned small business incorporated in July 2007. They specialize in the design, manufacturing and sales of secure data destruction devices for use on magnetic and optical media such as hard drives, tapes, discs and CDs/DVDs. Proton Engineering, Inc., their exclusive design company, has been in the data destruction business since 1987 and has worked closely with the NSA in developing many products. Several existing products are on the NSA and DoD approved list. Proton Engineering continues Research & Development for new data destruction technologies in order to keep pace with emerging technologies and developing threats.

Proton is the only company that manufacturers and markets a family of both degaussing and declassifying products. When compared to competitors' products, Proton's new line of automatic degaussers has the highest coercivity, least weight, and lowest price because the products use groundbreaking electromagnetic pulse (EMP) technology. Proton's patented declassifiers use innovative "micro-indention" technology and are the only declassification products on the NSA Evaluated Products List. For the past twenty years, Proton products have been proudly manufactured in the United States at the request of the National Security Agency (NSA), unlike offshore-manufactured competitors' products. The design of current products meets and exceeds the highest standards of the Department of Defense (DoD) and accommodates projected new hard drive technology that will occur in the next several years.

Several laws now require businesses to take critical steps to ensure that no personal data is left on disposed hard drives and electronic media. For a list of select regulations and guidelines that address compliance with data security and proper data destruction and disposal Click Here.
