What is Data Destruction?
Data destruction is the
complete removal of data from all types of computer media, so that it
can under no circumstances be accessed at a later date. This process
ensures that the data is physically and irretrievably removed from media
including hard drives, tape drives, and CDs.
With R&R Data Managed Services the data destruction process transcends
the type of simple and ineffective deletion of data or formatting that
can be achieved with widely available software tools.
Compliance and protection against Fraud and Identity Theft
For industry our services are just what you need to comply with the Data
Protection Act 1998, which states that Data on equipment and media must
be disposed of or eliminated so that it cannot, under any circumstances,
be used against an individual or organisation.
The affects of Identity Theft
Identity theft is the fastest growing type of fraud in the UK and costs
businesses and individuals £1.72 billion each year. With this potential
it is now essential for you to dispose of your data in a secure manner.
Government Home Office figures have estimated that more than 100,000
people are affected by identity theft in the UK each year and research
carried out in Bedfordshire alone shows that a staggering 90% of
disposed of computers contain sensitive data that could easily be used
to steal individual identities. This data is retrievable within two to three
minutes.
Even if you delete your data regularly or have reformatted your hard
disk drive to delete your old files, your information is still
retrievable and provides an easy way for criminals to steal your
identity.
