The functional process of the degausser can be summed up in a simple formula: load it up, insert the data carrier and let the cycle start, scan the serial number and document everything by using the mobile app – and you are done, The whole process takes between 17 or 30 seconds, depending on whether you are using the ASM240+ or ASM240 product variant. The intuitive app takes photos or films and records what type of media was deleted, the time of destruction, information about the operator and the serial number of the destroyed component. In addition, the result of the deletion process is determined and classified. Depending on the requirements, the number of deletion cycles can be specified using a web-based tool using PPMS (Pre-Paid Management System) technology.
The enormous "appetite" of the degausser for almost any kind of magnetic medium is as practical as it is pleasing for the user: It can be used for 2.5 or 3.5 inch hard disks as well as LTO, DLT, SDLT, DDS, DAT tape drives , AIT, Travan, SLR, QIC, 3592, 3590E, 3490E, 3480, 9840, 9940 and T10K. The contents of audio and video cassettes and 3.5 inch computer discs can also be reliably and irreversibly erased.
To ensure that each deletion can be carried out in accordance with the applicable security standards and norms, the ASM240 products work according to the guidelines of the ISO 27001 standard (international standardization standard for information security management systems) and are therefore a perfect suitable solution for institutions and companies that want to ensure the protection of confidential data within the framework of the GDPR.
