Privacy protection laws such as Data Protection Act in the UK require secure data management and data destruction of all customers, employees and patients .  From retail sales to health care, the personal information collected in the course of doing business, requires your organisation’s compliance with a variety of EU and UK information security and privacy laws.

As the protection against identity theft becomes more and more important, Data Recovery 24/7 is happy to provide data destruction services, guaranteeing information security for both you and confidential customer data stored on your computer hard drives and data storage devices.

You must also be aware that many of the common data erasure procedures used by company IT departments are not reliable, therefore data is not properly erased and can still be recovered by using advanced data recovery methods. Recent legislative and regulatory changes in the UK and EU have placed the onus on the custodian of the data to ensure that it is handled responsibly and securely. If you are not certain about how effective your current data erasure practices are, you may be exposing yourself and your organisation to a costly and embarrassing data leak which apart from being damaging, can be illegal as well.

You may need secure data erasure if:

• You are recycling, giving away or disposing of computers, hard drives or any electronic media storage devices
• You are restructuring, merging or want to stop trading
• You must ensure the data is securely erased and is irrecoverable otherwise you will be committing an offence under Data Protection Act.
• Formatting or deleting the data DOES NOT MEAN that the data is destroyed; data from formatted or even faulty hard drives can easily be recovered and used.
• Data Recovery Doctor can securely wipe out all your sensitive data and provide you with a Data Disposal Certificate. This means your data will not be exposed to fraudsters and identity thieves.
• You or your company are liable if disposed electronic media such as hard drives are sifted for data and the acquired data is used for fraudulent or illegal activities.
