As electronic data storage has become the norm for most industries, the switch to virtual record management has brought new security challenges to businesses across Pennsylvania. Computer disposal is one area where companies are beginning to realize the potential for serious liability. A few of the concerns your business could face if an obsolete hard drive fell into the wrong hands are:
Accidental or intentional release of proprietary information or trade secrets
Exposure of consumer or employee data paving the way for widespread ID theft (resulting in litigation by the affected parties and leaving your company liable for any damages)
Violation of HIPAA, FACTA, or Gramm-Leach-Bliley regulations resulting in penalties and other disciplinary action against your company by government agencies
