Why is a certificate of destruction for hard drives so important?

To comply with certain GDPR regulations, data law, and to reassure customers you are a responsible and professional data handling business or organisation, you need to be prepared to dispose of data in a secure and efficient fashion and prove that you have done so – hence the importance of a hard drive certificate of destruction.

This data destruction also applies to other methods of data storage and retrieval such as tapes, CDs, memory sticks and other storage media.

Even if data has been deleted using the computer’s software hard drives no longer in use require proper wiping as persons with access to powerful recovery tools could access data that you think has been deleted.

You also may need to keep evidence of secure data disposal – such as hard drive certificate of destruction documents – for possible audits of your data handling arrangements.
