No matter how well taken care of your electronic gadgets are, eventually the day will come when you need to replace your old technology and move on to the next big thing. With modern devices seemingly designed to grow outdated more and more quickly, getting rid of old devices has become an increasingly important part of any company. Unfortunately, if all you’ve done is deleted the files on your phone or performed a factory reset, your priceless and private information is potentially at risk. Don’t let your information get intercepted by people with bad intentions.
Deleted Doesn’t Mean Destroyed
The biggest misconception many people have about their phones and computers is the belief that once you delete something, the bits and bytes making it up are destroyed and can no longer be retrieved. This is not the case. In most cases, all that is removed is the information which allows the operating system on your device to identify the files exist and read them. Until enough space is used on your device that they need to be written over physically with new information, it is likely that your deleted files are still sitting right there to be found by anyone in possession of the device.
Your Company’s Private Data is Exposed
When it comes to company information, discovering that you have failed to sufficiently delete the data can be scary. From proprietary information to personal details of your clients, letting data fall into the wrong hands is a disaster. This is why it is vitally important that you ensure any of your old technological devices are appropriately disposed of and destroyed. Investing a little money in proper disposal provides insurance against the massive cost of a data breach.
