Another Lesson – Throw Out the Trash

January 13, 2015

Perhaps you are hearing your mother bellow those historic words . . . take out the trash! I’m not just talking about the kitchen garbage, it’s about all of the electronic files that should probably be deleted and otherwise considered as “trash.” A recent post on Ars Technica notes that we shouldn’t be saving all sorts of data even if storage is cheap. We are constantly advising clients to have a data destruction policy BEFORE the electronic data becomes evidence. Another excellent lesson learned from the Sony hack.
