Computer Warehouse Plus - HARD DISK DRIVE SANITATION
& DESTRUCTION |
|
Hard Disk Drive
Sanitation & Destruction
Sarbanes-Oxley, GLB, FACTA,
HIPAA and other Regulatory Compliance
Failing to properly destroy discarded
business, proprietary, patient, customer, credit or other
sensitive information could create both legal and public relations
nightmares.
The National Association of Information
Destruction (NAID) recommends that information destruction
be outsourced to a professional firm. Outsourcing allows firms
and their staff to concentrate on their core competencies.
By taking appropriate measures, companies can avoid incidents.
Computer Warehouse
Plus offers as part of a common sense, comprehensive approach
to endpoint data security, data destruction, which provides
assurance that sensitive data can't be misused – ever.
Your business
and personal identity is on your hard drive and deleting files
or formatting does not remove that information!
The data erasure
and destruction process is referred to in numerous ways such
as: disk sanitizing, erasing, DOD formatting, cleaning, purging,
or wiping. The method you choose to sanitize a disk should depend
on the security requirements of your organization.
Why sanitize
your deleted files? Because even though files may appear
to be deleted they can easily be undeleted without your authorization
or knowledge. Even if the deleted file space has been
overwritten by a different file, it's still possible to recover
the original deleted file.
Secure
services are also available:
The destruction
of hard drive data has to be carried out in such a way
as to ensure that data from which individuals, customers
and proprietary business information can be identified,
can't fall into the wrong hands. This must be done before
the hard drives are either transferred from one area to
another, sold, recycled or discarded.
