Corporate data breaches
Data breaches are a dime a dozen in the corporate world. They occur so frequently that’s rarely a surprise when one happens. Corporations deal in personal data so they’re possibly even more susceptible to identity theft and data breaches than other types of industries. Secure your company against mishandling by implementing a secure data disposal policy for paperwork and digital media.
Whether it’s a data breach due to a third-party vendor, a careless employee placing records in a recycling bin, or important data stored on forgotten hard drives, there are endless opportunities for criminals to access private information. Corporations need to emphasize security at every step and regular paper and digital shredding is a major piece of the puzzle.

Professional Shredding Is the Secure Option
Savvy business owners and managers already know that document shredding is a must-have. It’s the only way to reliably get rid of sensitive data and unneeded documents. But when it comes to actually taking care of all that paper, some managers make a mistake. They use an in-house shredding machine and do the work themselves. This option simply isn’t secure enough. Cross-cut shredders cut paper into long strips that can be pieced together. More importantly, employees don’t always know which documents should be shredded and which can be recycled. Don’t let an employee’s error create an expensive data breach. Plus, doing the work in-house is a major waste of time. Hiring a professional shredding company like DataSafe improves your company’s bottom line by saving on operational costs, saving time, increasing productivity, and eliminating security risks.
