Secure Destruction<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Hitting delete doesn’t erase risk.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There comes a time in the life of any business when certain documents are no longer needed and can be disposed of. However, the disposal of sensitive data needs to be handled in a safe manner so that none of the information can fall into the wrong hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBest of all, secure destruction is good for the environment. Shredded documents replace clear felling of (often) tropical hardwoods and help ensure these forests continue as a valuable carbon sinkhole into the future.

Not only do you need to ensure compliance with local and international privacy legislation in order to avoid hefty fines, reputational damage and the potential loss of clients, ensuring that your intellectual property doesn\u2019t end up in the wrong hands is one of the best business decisions you can make.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Failing to have a programme to destroy redundant records increases the risk that they fall into the wrong hands. It also costs you money in unnecessary storage costs and leads to inefficiencies. It can also be a fire risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All sorts of data, paper and digital need to be securely destroyed in a timely manner and in accordance with the relevant New Zealand Security Association Code of Practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best of all, secure destruction is good for the environment. Shredded documents replace clear felling of (often) tropical hardwoods and help ensure these forests continue as a valuable carbon sinkhole into the future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
