For IT professionals in Minnesota, there can be a great thrill in a system upgrade, but retiring hardware that contains sensitive company information is always a concern. Fortunately, for Minnesota companies looking for electronics recycling, one electronics recycling company not only will take decommissioned equipment off your hands, but they will manage the secure data destruction, including hard drive and media shredding. Al Sumetsky, CEO of OceanTech says hard drive and media shredding is just one way that OceanTech ensures that sensitive company data is never compromised. “We provide hard drive and media shredding to Minnesota companies and other organizations, as well as secure data sanitization processes that keep the machine intact but make all data on it unrecoverable,” Sumetsky says. Data destruction is just one service OceanTech provides. The company works with more than 1500 companies in Minnesota and around the nation to recycle computers, laptops, printers, phone systems, and high-end servers and other networking equipment. OceanTech strives for the highest level of customer service and professionalism. They have received accreditations for their commitment to processes that ensure the safety and security of sensitive data, and with a focus on recycling, OceanTech manages to pay as much as three times more than most electronics recycling companies for custom hardware. “Our downstream sales channels make it possible for us to refurbish and resell just about anything. Ensuring that the data has been destroyed, whether through our secure data sanitization processes or through the shredding of the hard drive is a part of the process,” Sumetsky says.
