Hard Drive Disposal - The Overlooked Confidentiality Exposure
Overview In every industry, IT managers face increasing pressure to assure the confidentiality of corporate, client or patient data. In addition, companies and managers in certain specific industries must comply with local country laws requiring strict standards for handling, distributing and using confidential client, corporate or patient information. While there are methods and products to aid in data storage and transmission security as the data moves through the system, assuring confidentiality of data on desktop or notebook computers when they leave the premises to be disposed of presents a different set of challenges and exposures. This paper lays out some of those challenges and attempt to demonstrate the value of third-party disposal.
