According to recent research, many used hard drives sold on popular online marketplaces still contain sensitive information, such as financial records, passwords, and personal data.
This is a major security risk for businesses, as it means that even if you think you’ve wiped your old hard drive clean, someone else could potentially access your confidential information.
Another option is to use specialized software to overwrite the hard drive with random data multiple times, making it much more difficult to recover any deleted files.
As a business owner, it’s your responsibility to ensure that sensitive data is properly disposed of and not left vulnerable to cyber criminals. So, before you sell or donate old hard drives, make sure you take the right steps to protect your business.
