Hard Drive Shredding

Laws such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, HIPPA, and FACTA hold organizations responsible for secure data erasure and the proper disposal of retired computers as well as other computer related hardware that stores data. But anytime a device has data storage capabilities, we shred it.

We physically destroy electronic materials through shredding to render the recovery of data impossible.

In today’s electronic business and consumer world, we’re sure you are aware how sensitive the topic of identity fraud and trade secrets can be. But do you know how easy it is for a hacker can retrieve your personal information off of the hard drive in your old computer?

Ohio eWaste Recycling has you covered.

We don’t recycle hard drives, we destroy them! Our process totally eliminates the possibility of your private information, personal or corporate, from getting into the wrong hands.

At some point all businesses have to discard confidential data. Customers lists, price lists, sales statistics, drafts of bids and correspondence, and even memos, contain information about business activity which would interest any competitor. Every business is also entrusted with information that must be kept private. Employees and customers have the legal right to have this data protected.

Without the proper safeguards, information ends up in the dumpster where it is readily, and legally, available to anybody. The trash is considered by business espionage professionals as the single most available source of competitive and private information from the average business. Any establishment that discards private and proprietary data without the benefit of destruction exposes itself to the risk of criminal and civil prosecution, as well as the costly loss of business.
