Are you sure about this data destruction method?

Do you think you have destoyed the data by simply “deleting” or “formatting” it? ”
Deleting” is not a way to sanitize the data.
Even if you delete the data, it still remains. It may also be well known that “formatting” (resetting to factory settings) may also leave some data behind.

However, according to the “Guidelines for Media Sanitization SP 800-88 Rev.1” by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a reformatting called “clear”, which will be explained later, is allowed on some devices, such as ordinary mobile phones, as long as the data cannot be easily restored using the device interface available to the user.

Is it really safe to destroy the data by "overwriting"?

“Overwriting,” which complies with the U.S. Department of Defense standard (DoD 5220.22-M), has been the standard data sanitization method for a long time. Therefore, many people may still recognize this as an absolute data sanitization method. However, NIST SP 800-88, which was introduced in 2006 (revised in 2014 and currently SP 800-88 Rev.1), is now the global standard for data sanitization. For example, when the DoD method was the standard, SSDs did not exist. NIST SP 800-88 Rev.1 states that from a sanitization perspective, the evolution of SSD storage technology (over-provisioning*1 and wear-leveling*2) has been revolutionary, making it impossible to erase all the data by overwriting.

*1: A certain amount of extra space is reserved for performance improvement and longevity. This extra space is usually inaccessible to the user, so it cannot be overwritten, which is adverse to sanitization. *2: A function that prevents data from being written to a certain area in order to prolong its life. Therefore, even if data is overwritten for sanitization, it may not be written to the target area, which is also detrimental to sanitization.
*2: A function that prevents data from being written to some areas in order to extend its life. Therefore, even if you try to overwrite, there is a possibility that the data will not be written in the target area, which is also unfavorable for data sanitization.

"Degaussing" will not work for SSDs! And it may not also work on HDDs.

“Degaussing” was introduced as one of the “Purge” methods in NIST SP800-88 Rev.1. However, as the name implies, this method is only effective for magnetic storage media, such as HDDs and magnetic tapes and is useless for flash memory, such as SSDs and USBs, and optical storage media, such as CDs and DVDs.

NIST SP800-88 Rev.1 also mentions that there is a risk in using old degausser for magnetic storage media such as HDDs because the data will not be sanitized unless the magnetic force of the degausser exceeds the magnetic force of the target storage media. In reality, it is difficult to determine the magnetic force from the label attached to the storage media, so it is necessary to contact the manufacturer. As with logical techniques, it is impossible to tell from the outside whether the data has been erased or not, so it is necessary to verify with certainty.

Is it true that "physical destruction" is the ultimate data sanitization method?

“Destroy” literally destroys the storage media by shredding, disintegrating, pulverizing, incineration, etc., to a level where the data cannot be recovered even with the state of the art laboratory techniques. In the appendix at the end of NIST SP800-88 Rev.1, there is a list of recommended data sanitization methods for different types of storage media, including “Clear,” “Purge,” and “Destroy.” Among the three, “Destroy” is the only one that can be used for all types of storage media.

NIST SP800-88 Rev.1 also states that “Destroy” may be the only option when “Clear” or “Purge” cannot be applied such as when the storage media is faulty, and “Destroy” may be the easiest and most effective option when you are not planning on reusing it.

Also, "Destroy" takes less time to verify since you can visually confirm that it has been executed.

So, are there any flaws in “Destroy”? Of course, there are some things you should pay attention to. “Destroy” does not directly erase data.

Thus, half-baked physical destruction can lead to data recovery using state of the art laboratory techniques.
NIST SP800-88 Rev.1 specifically states that bending, cutting, or some emergency procedures (e.g., using a firearm to puncture a storage device) may only damage the device partially and leave some parts intact, making the information accessible using state of the art laboratory techniques. Such methods are not recognized as “Destroy.”

In addition, the NIST SP800-88 Rev.1 is concerned that flash memory such as SSDs may be difficult to physically destroy because they are so small and hard. In general, “disintegration,” “pulverization,” and “incineration” are performed by outsourced metal destruction companies with specific capabilities or by licensed incinerator. As for “shredding,” for example, if you remove the outer cover of a floppy disk, you can process the disk with a paper shredder. So, “Destroy” is not something that can be easily implemented.

Nevertheless, even if you look at the Sanitization and Disposition Decision Flow (NIST SP800-88 Rev.1) below, you can see that for moderate and high-security storage media, in which you have no plan on reusing, there is only one option, “Destroy.”

When comparing "Clear," "Purge," and "Destroy" as shown below, "Destroy" seems to be more versatile unless you are reusing the storage media.

However, is there such a device that can solve these concerns with physical destruction? (1) Does not bend, cut, or puncture. (2) Easy to use even without any specific capabilities (3) Can shred data into small pieces in proportion to its confidentiality.

A "sand making machine" that can instantly crush hard ores into the desired size. The multimedia shredder Mighty Security was developed from the inherited strength of that sand making machine. That is why it can physically destroy hard storage media into pieces according to the confidentiality of the data. A general media shredder is a derivative of a paper shredder, so it can only handle a portion of soft storage media. Mighty Security can handle all types of storage media with one machine so, you don't have to worry about data sanitization anymore.

Features

FEATURES 01

Compatible with HDDs, SSDs, etc., as it "crushes" instead of "shredding."

It uses a "crushing" method that uses blows from a high-speed rotating hammer. This makes it possible to handle hard storage media such as hard disks, SSDs, USB memory sticks, smartphones, and magnetic tapes, which conventional media shredders could not handle. Needless to say, it can also process storage media, such as FDs, CDs / DVDs, and cash cards, which were supported by conventional media shredders.
FEATURES 02

You can freely adjust the crushing
size and achieve both security and efficiency.

A Rooster (punch-hole screen) is installed in the discharge section of the crushing chamber. You can easily adjust the crushing size by replacing the Rooster. Even if the target storage media or the confidentiality of the data to be processed changes in the future, you only need to purchase the Rooster without upgrading the machine, making it economical.
FEATURES 03

High-speed processing shortens work time

Since this method is based on smashing, easy-to-break devices such as CDs/DVDs, circuit boards, flash memories, etc., can be mass-processed in batches, whichis overwhelmingly fast. Reducing the data sanitization work time will not only reduce the labor cost but also enhances security by shortening the time that the storage media is left unattended.
FEATURES 04

Simple structure with a low failure rate and domestically produced, making it safe and easy to maintain.

It uses a "crushing" method that uses blows from a high-speed rotating hammer. This makes it possible to handle hard storage media such as hard disks, SSDs, USB memory sticks, smartphones, and magnetic tapes, which conventional media shredders could not handle. Needless to say, it can also process storage media, such as FDs, CDs / DVDs, and cash cards, which were supported by conventional media shredders.

CASE

Extensive records of implementation in various industries, especially in the central government agencies

The system is used mainly by central government agencies such as the Ministry of Defense, Maritime Self-Defense Force, Financial Services Agency, Metropolitan Police Department, Cabinet Office, Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, and National Tax Agency, as well as administrative agencies such as local public prosecutors’ offices and city halls, financial institutions, universities, manufacturers, and other private companies.

In recent years, we have seen an increase in the use of this service, especially by data destruction companies.

VOICE The plant engineer who implemented the system evaluated it as follows.

When I used it for the first time, I felt how easy it is to operate. I was expecting it to be more complicated because it is a machine that erases various types of confidential data. This machine can destroy storage media with just a push of a button. Even our female employees who had never been involved in confidential data processing could easily learn how to operate it. In addition, the processing speed is amazing. It can crush even hard disks in an instant. Not only that, the double-layered lid ensures safe and secure operation without bouncing back. I would recommend this machine to customers who are struggling with the disposal of their confidential storage media and to provide them peace of mind to make them happy.

Data destruction company
It can really shred small storage media such as SSDs and microSds into tiny pieces.

Data destruction company
Trucks loaded with crushers from other companies cost tens of millions of yen (on-site physical destruction of semiconductor scrap), but the Mighty Security series has a good balance of price, size, and processing capacity. It is also often praised by many semiconductor manufacturers.

We also appreciate that maintenance and parts replacement can be done easily and manually without using a large-scale machine.

FAQ

Isn't it loud?

The noise level for no-load (when no storage media is being processed) for MS-Z5 is about 60 dB, while MS-100S is about 70 dB from a distance of one meter in front of the machine. The noise level when loaded varies greatly depending on the storage media to be processed, but with HDDs, which tend to generate the most noise, the maximum noise level (The maximum noise is generated the moment the storage media is loaded and when the hammer hits it for the first time. Then the noise level will gradually decline) is about 80 dB for the MS-Z5 series and about 90 dB for the MS-100S series from a distance of one meter in front of the machine.
How much dust is generated?

The amount of dust generated varies greatly depending on the type of storage media to be processed and the crushing size. The MS-100S series is equipped with a dust collector as a standard feature to minimize dust generation, while the MS-Z5 series can also be equipped with a dust collector as an option.
What about durability and maintenance system?

The replacement cycle of major consumable parts varies greatly depending on the type of storage media to be processed, volume, and the crushing size. In some cases, the parts are not replaced at all for several years. In other cases, the hammers are replaced only once or twice a year, despite the considerable amount of media being processed. Please consult with our sales staff for details. We also offer regular maintenance contracts, and replacing parts is simple and can be done by the customer.
What is the standard size of the Rooster that comes with it?

The customer has the final say regarding the size, but of course, we can suggest the appropriate size according to the storage media to be processed, based on our past experiences.
What is the delivery timeframe?

It takes about 6 weeks for MS-Z5 and about 10 weeks for MS-100S.
