Deleting Data Safely

July 2, 2018

In the most recent edition of the Kennedy-Mighell Report podcast, our friends Dennis Kennedy and Tom Mighell offer their advice on how to delete data safely. There are a lot of issues to consider and Dennis and Tom do a good job of discussing them. And they are right – if you are talking about hard drives, especially solid state hard drives, having them professionally shredded is your best bet.

The comic highlight for me was finding out that Dennis has a slightly maniacal side – I laughed out loud at his obsessive endeavor to physically destroy a hard drive – the story involves a drill, a pickaxe and hydrochloric acid. How can you resist giving that a listen?
