Overview Data destruction is not a new concept as it has been practiced by the DoD (Department of Defense) for years. However, there are many people who still do not understand the personal risk involved when throwing out their used computers. It is estimated that 1,086,250,903 people worldwide use the Internet, which is a 200% increase in usage since the year 2000 (Internet World Stats, 2006). In today's world it is common place to make purchases over the Internet or be involved in some form of online banking. Most users never stop to think that their credit card, bank account number, or social security number may be stored somewhere on their computer before they dispose of it at the local thrift shop, flea market, or family yard sale.
