Why Erasing Data on Hard Drives Isn’t Enough Protection
The information your business saves on hard drives may not be as secure as you think, especially on obsolete devices you no longer use. Whenever a hard drive or storage device has met the end of its life, the assumption is that its data will never wind up in anyone else’s hands so why not just throw it away? However, improper disposal can lead to data breaches, identify fraud, and a host of issues your company doesn’t want affecting its data security or reputation. Even when hard drives are erased, the fragments of data can still be gathered by diligent thieves. The most secure way to dispose of hard drives and avoid a security breach is to use a professional shredding service.
Could Old Hard Drives, Discs, or USBs Cause a Security Breach?
Once a hard drive is no longer used by an employee, it can become easy to lose track of it. Keeping an eye on data stored on smaller devices, such as CDs or USB thumb drives, is even more difficult. Eventually, these devices wind up thrown into an unsecured waste or recycling bin. Mobile hard drive shredding from PROSHRED® Milwaukee eliminates that privacy risk. We use trucks with industrial shredders that can process and destroy entire pieces of equipment at once. We maintain a secure chain of custody throughout the appointment, from pick-up to final processing, and every hard drive shredding customer receives a certificate of destruction. Whether you’re a law firm, medical facility, financial organization, educational institution, or any type of small or medium business, we make sure your hard drive destruction services comply with the privacy laws affecting your business, such as HIPAA, HITECH, FACTA, and GLBA.
We Recycle All Electronic Waste
Being green is a goal for most businesses today as part of their corporate image and sustainability plans. As part of our commitment to environmental stewardship, PROSHRED® Milwaukee transports all waste from shredded hard drives to local metal and electronics recyclers for final processing. We use only certified e-waste recycling partners that comply with federal and state regulations. Rest assured that, with us, your private information is securely erased and the storage devices are recycled responsibly.

This was only our second time using ProShred, but it was our first encounter with Andrew. We found him to be very pleasant and efficient. I had estimated we were going to have approx.. 3 bins of documents to shred based on how our last visit went. We ended up only having two bins because Andrew was very conscious as to making sure there were no voids in the bin. The amount of time he was here was no longer than the previous encounter the only difference was, it was evident that he cared. I greatly appreciated this and felt it was worth my time to make it known. Thank you! read less
