Common Misconceptions:

Data Deletion: With most operating systems, files that are deleted are not really erased. In many cases, the only thing erased is the logical link pointing to the file, so confidential data remains recoverable by most any computer specialist.

Reformatting: Many companies think that formatting a hard disk removes and destroys its data, when in fact this data which can be highly confidential or proprietary, can still be easily retrieved though special processes called data recovery. An easy solution for someone looking to mine your data for theft.

Complications:

Failing to properly destroy discarded business, proprietary, patient, customer, credit or other sensitive information will create both legal and public relations nightmares.

Recommendations:

The National Association of Information Data Destruction (NAID) recommends that information destruction be outsourced to a professional firm. Outsourcing allows firms and their staff to concentrate on their core competencies.
