Going
Green and Secure all with One New Initiative
At
Retriever Waste Management, we are constantly on the lookout
for new ways to help you dispose of your waste and recycle
materials using methods that are kind to Mother Earth,
while accounting for your company's and clients' security.
Given that, we're pleased to announce that RWM has partnered
with a notable US company which specializes in digital
data destruction and recycling. Unlike processes such
as shredding, which simply destroys digital media (tapes,
disc drives, DVDs, etc), our partnership allows RWM to
offer data destruction that safely removes all digital
data and information from media prior to recycling. From
there, we recycle 100% of
all by-products, making the process a truly “green” one.
What
is Digital Data Destruction?
Digital
data destruction is a multi-tiered process. First, we
work with you to evaluate the scope of your project and
form a plan to remove data and dispose of the media. From
there, we determine, according to the type of media, the
best process to remove 100% of the data and information
contained on the media. Finally, we provide Certificates
of Destruction which “change of custody”, relieving you
of any liability related to information contained on the
media.
In
corporate America , digital data destruction is becoming
an increasingly popular option for businesses that want
to dispose` of hardware and media in a safe and cost effective
way without compromising security or the environment.
No
Data Left Behind
The
myriad regulations and compliance laws that have forced
businesses to properly dispose of digital records has
prompted this need for secure and complaint data destruction.
From the Gramm Leach Bliley Act, to Sarbanes Oxley, to
HIPAA, regulations are increasingly stringent and businesses
are under pressure to protect confidential data at all
costs, through data's entire lifecycle.
Digital
data destruction aids businesses in regulatory compliance,
other benefits to digital data destruction with RWM include:
•

destruction of classified data for the military
