Greetings!
I've been informed that, for PCI-compliance, old hard drives (from
decomissioned servers, etc) need to be degaussed rather than over-written
by something like DBAN.
Does anyone have experience with a company which offers this service and
which they would recommend? I can Google
You could let it DIAF. At some point the material will reach its

Interesting article. They are pretty specific about destruction methods.
I agree with Erik, with the current price of drives, destruction IS secure,
cheap and can be done most anywhere with any of several methods. (large
hammers, drills, sand blaster, small arms fire, etc) Typically I pull the
Small arms fire - hm!

This is an amalgamated reply to multiple posts.
I'm speaking mainly to DoD/DSS/NISP standards here, since that's
