A computer’s hard drive contains valuable information. From business passwords to personal account details that could lead to identify theft, your hard drive contains a lot of important information. If you’re planning to get rid of an old computer at home or in the office, it is imperative to permanently destroy all data stored on the computer.
Data should be treated as a valuable currency. What is data destruction? Data destruction is the process of destroying all data stored on a hard drives, tapes, hard disks, flash drives or any other storage device. Safe data destruction encompasses more than simply clicking ‘delete’ on your files on your computer. When a device is physically destroyed, it is rendered completely unusable, most frequently by disintegrating, shredding, or crushing the media.
