Harsco Corp., a provider of environmental solutions for industrial and specialty waste streams based in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, has announced that its Clean Earth division’s facility in Modesto, California, has received a facility-based operation endorsement for physical hard drive and solid state destruction from the Phoenix-based National Association for Information Destruction (NAID). NAID is an operational accreditation program for verifying data destruction service provider compliance in accordance with data protection regulations and security standards related to the physical destruction of hard drives and solid state drives.

Harsco says that its Clean Earth facility in Modesto received certification approval July 16 after completing internal process audits and enhancing security features, including security cameras, badge access and alarm systems. Clean Earth is a large specialty waste company that provides remediation, disposal, recycling and beneficial reuse solutions for hazardous and nonhazardous materials. Harsco says Clean Earth operates a network of 91 locations across the U.S.

According to a news release from Harsco, this certification verifies Clean Earth’s compliance with laws related to the protection of sensitive information on physical hard drives and solid state devices by shredding these devices within its Modesto facility. The company says this is the second Clean Earth facility to earn this specific NAID certification, with the first being its location in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

“Clean Earth’s electronics processing facility in Modesto is committed to establishing and maintaining security processes and procedures to enable the secure handling of hard drives and solid state devices,” says Clean Earth President David Stanton. “Clean Earth understands how critical it is to properly manage and destroy electronics that contain sensitive data. This certification gives our customers the additional peace of mind that comes with knowing we have been audited to NAID AAA certification standards.”
