Data Destruction
What is Data Destruction?
Data destruction is the process of deliberately destroying data stored on media, such as hard drives, mobile phones, or flash drives. The aim of data destruction is to make data unrecoverable and unusable by any user or organization.
Who it impacts
Data destruction is a critical process that touches almost every business and individual in today’s data-driven world. From large banks to smaller private companies, data destruction impacts organizations of all sizes since it helps protect sensitive, copyrighted data from being exposed or stolen. Not only does data destruction help such organizations remain compliant with data privacy laws, but it also ensures their digital data courtesies are kept secure.
What your team can do
With data destruction services becoming an increasingly pressing need for businesses, teams must take proactive steps to ensure their data is secure.
- Training: Companies should start by educating themselves on data destruction, the regulations that apply, and available data destruction methods and software.
- Internal Policies: Executives must create clear policies that stipulate when data destruction is necessary, such as at the conclusion of a project or when an employee leaves a company.
- Data Verification: Every data destruction procedure must include verifying that data has been completely erased before any hardware containing it is discarded or recycled.
