Proper document disposal is paramount for businesses today. Using Paper Shredder Machines in Ontario is a guaranteed way of keeping sensitive information—such as financial reports, client data, and intellectual property—out of the wrong hands. Shredding documents before they are disposed of helps you minimize the risk of data breaches, identity theft, and non-compliance. ECS Digital Solutions can help you choose a shredder that meets the security needs of your industry so that your business is in compliance with privacy laws such as PIPEDA. In addition to peace of mind, responsible shredding practices engender trust among clients, employees, and stakeholders by demonstrating responsible data management. A properly maintained paper shredder can offer consistent output for five or more years—often between three to ten years—depending on usage frequency, volume of paper, and upkeep tendencies.
