Safeguard sensitive information and protect your clients’ privacy with Phiston Technologies. Our company helps government institutions, data centers and commercial businesses prevent data breaches with secure data destruction. Partner with us for end-of-life material handling solutions when your high-capacity, magnetic tapes are no longer needed for long-term archiving and backups.
Government and Data Center Security Challenges
Many organizations prefer using linear tape-open (LTO) tapes because the storage systems are disconnected from networks. While offline storage can prevent cyberattackers from accessing unauthorized information, extra caution and care must be exercised when physically handling the tapes.
Improper handling can lead to compromised data and compliance issues. Enhance your LTO tape disposal with secure shredding machines or on-site shredding options.
Our Secure LTO Tape Shredders
At Phiston Technologies, we’re committed to helping you eliminate security risks and overcome industry challenges. Our MediaDice® All Media Disintegrator (MD-HTP-A2) is the first and only equipment on the market that can shred LTO tapes to 2 mm nominal edge lengths or less. The machine requires password-controlled access for authorized users and administrators.
Operators can use an intuitive touchscreen to shred, separate and integrate the media. Automatic jam recovery keeps operations running smoothly, and a cycle counter tracks the volume of media destroyed. A magnetic separator places metal pieces into a bin for easy recycling. Each machine is equipped to handle additional media types, from solid-state drives (SSDs) and hard disk drives (HDDs) to network switches and laptops.
Have unique industry and facility requirements? Our in-house researchers, designers and engineers can create custom shredding equipment that meets your needs. We’re innovative, worldwide leaders in data destruction solutions.
