Virtual and physical data trails can inadvertently put your business at risk.
Document shredding is an old-school trick for securing confidential information on paper. If you think that document shredding is no longer important because we’re living in a digital world, think again.
Shred-it, a document destruction and data security company, put together an infographic highlighting how both digital and paper trails can leave behind information that can be used maliciously against your company [2].
Some of the highlights from the infographic state:
- $7.2 million in damages is the amount that data breaches could cost organizations, according to the Ponemon Institute.
- 47 percent of businesses underestimate the consequences of fraud.
- 10 percent of breaches and investigations occur in places such as hotels.
