Secure Media Disposal with CMCS
Protect Your Data with Confidence
At CMCS, the secure handling and disposal of confidential waste is a top priority. Improperly storing or disposing of old records can compromise both our business and our clients. That’s why we follow best practice handling and destruction protocols based on cheque data and cardholder data regulations.
Secure Waste Management
Any physical item containing customer data that is not dispatched as a final product or supplied as a sample is deemed secure waste and placed in our locked security bins within the secure process area. These bins are monitored 24/7 by our internal CCTV cameras.
Efficient Shredding Process
When the bins are full, a recognised third-party security shredding company arrives onsite with a shredding machine that meets trade standards (10mm by 10mm serrated sections). Under the supervision of a CMCS representative and monitored by CCTV, each bin is unlocked and emptied into the shredding machine. The process is documented with a unique reference number, time, date, and weight, ensuring accountability. All shredded material is recycled according to the third-party provider’s policy.
Custom Shredding Services
We offer customised solutions for clients who require segregation. Bespoke bins can be provided, and a dedicated shredding service with a specific certificate can be arranged.
Secure Hardware Disposal
Hardware items are assessed for value and WEEE disposal criteria. Memory devices capable of non-volatile storage are removed and destroyed immediately to ensure data security. Devices are either drilled or crushed based on their type. The remaining hardware is disposed of via WEEE regulated processes, with a secondary check to ensure all memory capability is destroyed.
Choose CMCS for reliable and comprehensive media disposal solutions, ensuring your data is protected every step of the way. Experience peace of mind with our secure and efficient processes.
