Full transcript · Higher Education ITAD: FERPA Compliance

A surplus laptop or a retired Chromebook can still carry student records, and FERPA protects those education records through device disposal. Because 1:1 device programs retire thousands of units at once, one mishandled device can mean both a breach and a funding risk.

The academic refresh runs on your calendar: surplus is identified as 1:1 devices and lab fleets come offline at term end, collection is timed around semester boundaries across every campus, student data is rendered unrecoverable through NIST 800-88-aligned wipe or destruction, eligible devices are remarketed to help fund the next refresh, and R2v3 recycling plus certificates of destruction complete the audit file. FERPA-grade disposal turns end-of-life into next year's budget.

Schools choose CyberCrunch for two reasons: making student data unrecoverable — deletion leaves records recoverable, while NAID AAA, NIST 800-88-aligned destruction protects students and your FERPA standing — and funding the next refresh, where compliant remarketing of eligible devices turns retirement into budget, with documentation for every unit. Every engagement leaves records unrecoverable and every device documented, end to end, for K-12 districts through research universities nationwide.
