Prioritizing the destruction of data on end-of-life electronics is essential for preventing data breaches, as it guarantees that sensitive information remains inaccessible to unauthorized individuals. Through secure data destruction practices, organizations can significantly diminish the likelihood of breaches and minimize potential financial ramifications. With the average cost of a breach totaling $4.95 million for lifecycles over 200 days, proactive data destruction measures are crucial.
