Why must my business shred it's sensitive documents, data and media? Every year, U.S. businesses and individuals lose billions of dollars to corporate fraud, identity theft and espionage. Most companies spend millions of dollars protecting confidential information. However, when no longer useful, that same information ends up in a trash can or a recycling bin where it is legally available to anyone. Without proper safeguards, you can unwittingly expose your business to the risk of criminal and civil prosecution and fines, up to $50,000 ($250,000 in the medical field), as well as the costly loss of business or business ideas. For our residential customers, securely and properly destroying your personal and sensitive information, such as outdated tax returns, credit card bills, cancelled checks/banking details, is the most important step to preventing and eliminating identity theft. Whether you are a commercial, small business or residential client of DataShredder, you will enjoy the same Peace of Mind Assurance as all of our valued customers: the security that comes from knowing your confidential information will not fall into the wrong hands.
