Shredding your company's sensitive information is more than simply a good business practice - it’s the law.
Data protection laws have been created to hold companies to account when confidential employee or customer information is not protected and disposed of in an appropriate manner.
Any private or public company that maintains personal consumer information or utilizes consumer reports, payroll, financial statements, or health records are now legally obligated to ensure their confidential data is disposed of in such away that safeguards.
At Cyclone Shredding, primary objective is the secure destruction of your confidential documents and ultimately the protection of your business.
While shredding protects the identity of your clients, product shredding protects the identity of your brand. The resale of discarded products has become commonplace, and your companies’ image and identity is at risk when its products are resold by counterfeiters. Carelessly discarded packaging materials also pose a threat to your company, as unethical third parties can fill your packaging materials with a sub par product and resell it, destroying your brand.

Information Security for You and Your Business
1. WHO IS GATHERING YOUR INFORMATION AND HOW/WHY IS IT BEING USED?
Don’t share any business/personal information unless you are certain that it is safe to do so, especially bank account numbers, PPS numbers and DOB's.
2. MINIMIZE CREDIT CARD USE AND WATCH YOUR BILLING CYCLE.
If the bills don’t arrive on time, contact the creditors. Keep your credit card account information in a secure place so that you can act quickly by canceling all accounts if your wallet is stolen.
