SHREDDING

Shred your records securely – proof positive

In today’s highly regulated environment, it’s not enough to shred confidential paper records. You also need to document that you have done so in a secure and compliant way.

Iron Mountain works with you to establish criteria for distinguishing between confidential records that require shredding and less sensitive records that can be immediately recycled at considerable savings. Policies are put in place to approve records for destruction and to create a chain of custody, including destruction certification.

Don’t forget physical media

Even if you shred paper records and dispose of electronic files, you may be overlooking another area of vulnerability and cost: retaining physical media longer than required. Iron Mountain helps ensure your program integrates the timely, secure shredding of backup tapes, compact discs, blueprints, film x-rays and other physical media.
