Secure Shredding and Data Destruction Services for the Hotels and Hospitality Industry

The hotel industry has seen a huge number of high-profile data breaches in recent years. Despite this, POS systems and networks continue to be compromised on a regular basis. But many hotel operators also overlook a more common, low-tech threat to their information security: paper documents.

According to Trustwave Global Security Report 2019, 10% of data breach incidents happened in the hospitality industry [1], resulting in monumental fines and reputational damage for both large chains as well as smaller and single properties.

The introduction of the GDPR has made it even more important to securely store, and destroy private and confidential information. Shred-it’s range of services from paper shredding to hard drive destruction help ensure your organisation stays secure and remains compliant.

Protect your guests. Protect your business. Get Shred-it.

In an industry that relies heavily on front desk employees and other customer-facing service representatives, you need to feel confident they know how to identify, handle, and securely dispose of confidential information – whether that information belongs to your guests or your hotel.

This is increasingly important, as 24% of all data breaches are still caused by employee error or negligence [6].

Our document shredding and hard drive destruction services removes the responsibility placed upon employees to protect your guests, staff and hotel.

GDPR compliance: don't become a statistic.

Since the introduction of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in 2018, reported data breaches have surged by two-thirds, resulting in significant fines and subsequent reputational damage [7].

41% of UK consumers claim they will never return to a business that has had a data breach [8].
