With increasing legislation for data protection it is vitally important that all data is destroyed and erased from hard drives and associated media.
- The vulnerability of information stored on PC hard drives is a recognised security risk. Unlike other PC data storage media the hard drive always stays with the PC. Every time a PC leaves a company's control all the data and company information will go with it.
- Even if the hard drive breaks down the storage platters will still contain information which could be read once repaired.
