In today’s age of data security, proper measures must be followed to ensure that sensitive information does not fall into the wrong hands. Yet many organizations simply do not have the resources to properly remove old IT systems. In 2003, two MIT graduates bought 158 hard drives from various sources and found that only 12% had been properly sanitized. The rest has sensitive information that included credit card numbers, social security numbers, passwords, patient names and addresses, and highly sensitive corporate information.
Environmental liability is also an important concern when disposing of obsolete IT equipment. Equipment dumped illegally - whether by the originating company, charitable organization, or disreputable third party - can be traced back to the original company with heavy fines of up to $25,000 per day, per machine1 and penalties despite the best of intentions.
