Not a week goes by when we don’t get a call here at OceanTech from a law firm, financial services firm, or other business that is upgrading their technology. Companies call us because they know we can efficiently destroy data from their outdated laptops, desktop computers or servers to maintain privacy and ensure that sensitive information can never be accessed by a third party.As most people are well aware, whenever you upgrade a computer you need to deal with the transfer and/or destruction of the data on the computer you are getting rid of. Most companies are concerned with the potential for sensitive data to be transferred either to the next owner of that system or to a landfill. Your data is not safe if it has not been professionally destroyed, and many businesses operate within regulations that require that they take measures to ensure the successful and efficient destruction of data.We normally get involved with data destruction when we’re assisting firms with the recycling of their old computers, and our customers appreciate our thoroughness in ensuring the safe and efficient elimination of all traces of their data on the outdated system.Whether you need us to digitally erase your data from old computers so they can be transferred to a different employee, or you want to ensure that the hard drive is literally shredded and disposed of properly, we can handle the task. Some customers even require that their hard drives be shredded on-site so that the sensitive information never leaves the building. We recognize these common concerns and are prepared to handle those types of requests.In this age of regulations and the need for ultimate security with private information, you need a partner for data destruction that you can trust.
