WEEE recycling and Data Destruction?

2011-08-03

WEEE recycling and data destruction is of great importance. Consider this: you have a laptop with old organisational data to recycle. Used data may no longer be of value to you, but it is gold mine to your competitors or anyone wanting to get your data base.

This is precisely why you need to go for a WEEE compliant e-cycler who offers data destruction services. You may be putting yourself and your customers at risk of data theft, not to mention making data available to untrustworthy individuals by lightly erasing data while disposing electronic items. This is precisely why you need to go for a WEEE compliant e-cycler who offers data destruction services.  It is also important to protect your customers personal details otherwise you could get fined.

Hard drive destruction is absolutely imperative because even when a disk drive is seemingly erased, the information on it can be restored and used by someone else without your knowledge. Ensuring that a e-cycler destroys the hard drive by methods like shredding is the only way you can be sure that any data stored on your drive is completely wiped off.
