DEVICES WITHOUT HARD DRIVES
There are many devices that don’t have a hard disk drive but still retain identifying information about a company. Devices such as switches, routers and fax machines are reset to the manufacturers default specifications to ensure the removal of any ownership details.
Smart phones and iPads / tablets carry vast amounts of data both internally and externally via memory and SIM cards. This generation of technology needs to be treated as seriously as a laptop computer in order to avoid data breaches. Where these devices are reused the devices are reset and the data overwritten.
