ITAD Data Security Compliance: Best Practices for Protecting Sensitive Data

Server recycling process from risk to recovery

Strip a server down and you’ll find the same things every time: processors, DIMMs, GPUs, boards, power supplies, storage. None of it is waste until you decide to treat it like waste.

Where to do data center decommissioning

Data center decommissioning: where do we actually do this? On-site? Off-site? Ship it out and hope?  Sounds like a rookie question. It isn’t. “Where” decides custody, evidence, carbon, and cash.
