The success and failure of financial service businesses relies largely on the organisation’s reputation and integrity. Both consumers and corporate clients expect service and performance built on a foundation of privacy, confidentiality, and information security.
With numerous high-profile breaches, how financial institutions collect, store, and destroy confidential information is coming under increased scrutiny.
Shred-it’s secure paper shredding and data destruction services help ensure the security of personal information and reduce the risk of data breaches.

Not everything you collect, store, or handle is digital. When financial forecasts are printed, or agendas are circulated, they are at risk of falling into the wrong hands if they are not handled and disposed of securely. For that reason, every financial business is at risk of an information breach regardless of size, type, or location. In an industry that relies on privacy and confidentiality, the reality is that many information breaches happen not because of inferior firewalls or passwords, but because of employee error or poor judgement.

Financial institutions of every type collect some of the most sensitive, private, and confidential information there is. What happens to that information when it is no longer needed, can become the source of an information breach.
If you create, collect, or dispose of these types of documents, you and your organisation could be at-risk of an information breach.
