Why Data Security Inc.®?
We’d like to tell you about the unique history of Data Security Inc.®, our core values and commitment to our customers, and why our customers choose Data Security, Inc.®.
Data Security, Inc.® was established over 35 years ago on four simple things: innovation, an unmet security need, and a young entrepreneur and an engineer. In the mid-1980s, other degausser producers weren’t able to solve the emerging needs of the classified community. Data Security, Inc.® did just that. In 1985, we released the Type II degausser, the first of over a dozen Data Security, Inc.® degaussers listed on the National Security Agency’s (NSA) Evaluated Products List. We are proud to design, manufacture, sell and support the products ourselves to ensure top quality and customer care. Our team knows it all because we do it all.
This core value of innovation to secure data is what makes us the leader in digital data destruction. Along the way, we’ve added many degaussers and destruction products to our fleet. We’ve never lost focus on providing quality products that meet the NSA’s high-security standards. This, paired with our core value of putting the customer first, is how we’ve held our industry leadership position for so long. We aren’t just what we do, we are how we do it.

Here’s how each of our core values benefit our community and customers:
• Exceptional experience through relationships, education, and superior customer service
We take care of the customer at great cost. Sometimes that means swapping equipment, supporting items no longer under warranty, or going above and beyond to meet customer needs. Our goal is to take care of the customer and do a superior job of it, while building lasting relationships along the way.
• Winning through quality, innovation, honesty and teamwork
To quote the movie Robots, “we see a need and fill a need” day in and day out. We do so by listening to our customers and the industry to understand which solutions are missing from the marketplace. Then our engineers get to work. They use their decades of combined experience to design innovative, high-quality American-Made products that are easily serviced.
• Take pride in yourself, take pride in the process
Even when nobody is looking, we’re doing the right thing. We strongly believe that every man, woman, and child should be educated about proper and secure data destruction. This means we’ll go the extra mile to share our expertise and knowledge with anyone. We’re proud of what we’ve learned and honored to share it with those who will listen, regardless of if they’re our customer or not.
• Together, making a difference in the lives of our employees and community
We care about people a whole lot! Our benefits encourage personal growth and employee wellness. Our company makes community involvement a priority. We believe in investing in our people and community, internally and externally. That passion extends to our customers, many of whom are our friends. We care for and develop relationships that go beyond the vendor/customer relationship most are used to.
• Humor
As Charlie Chaplin said, “a day without laughter is a day wasted.” Have a beer and a good laugh with us. It’s our favorite way to end the workday.

Today, there are many companies that make degaussers and destruction products. However, no one else does it with the experience, integrity and care of Data Security, Inc.® When you work with us, you get much more than a piece of hardware or a solved problem. You get the support of a trusted partner, the advice of experts and the concern of a true forever friend.
