We live in a technology-driven age. Laptops, desktops, and digital data storage devices are essential for the smooth functioning of every business.  

If not disposed-off properly, these devices and the confidential information they store are a goldmine for hackers.

Overview

Contrary to the popular belief, no amount of formatting, wiping, or erasing can protect your confidential information. If your hard drives are still physically intact, data can be retrieved from them. This is where professional data shredding services in UAE can help you.

Professionals offer secure shredding services, ensuring that 100% of the data on your old drives are destroyed securely.

Here are 5 reasons why businesses must seek professional hard drive destruction services in Dubai.

  1. It is the law – Several data protection compliances and legislation are now globally active to ensure that companies are dealing appropriately with the public’s personal and confidential information. Staying compliant with data protection legislation can help companies shred sensitive information to protect themselves and their stakeholders against possible data breaches.
  2. Protection of a company’s reputation – Data breaches are fairly common in today’s digital landscape and can cause serious reputational damage to companies. By protecting and securely shredding stakeholders’ confidential information, companies can protect their reputation and goodwill.
  3. Protection against financial loss – Average total cost of a data breach in the Middle East amounts to $6.25 million. Compromised or stolen data does not only cause direct financial losses from revenue loss, but also indirect financial losses in form of the hefty fines, cost of businesses lost, cost of damage mitigation as well as the cost of procuring new business.
  4. Environment Protection – Electronic waste contains toxic metals like mercury and lead. If disposed of improperly, these can contaminate water and soil and become serious health hazards. Professional data shredding services in UAE ensure proper recycling of e-waste.
  5. Secure data destruction – Investing in professional hard drive destruction services in Dubai and UAE can ensure complete physical destruction of old hard drives to make the data 100% irretrievable.
