Document Destruction Services for Government & Public Services
When you are appointed by the public to provide government services, you are entrusted to protect the confidentiality of their private information. As a government organisation, there is legislation and regulations, practices and procedures to help ensure the security of your information. Owing to numerous high-profile data breaches, how government bodies and public organisations, store and destroy confidential information is coming under increased scrutiny – especially since the introduction of the GDPR.
Secure paper shredding and data destruction is now more important than ever and with a range of services, Shred-it is here to help ensure your organisation remains compliant and keeps data protected.
