Welcome to our third TALE of Terror!!!

A business relied on a small office shredder to destroy large amounts of confidential paperwork. The machine frequently jammed, overheated, and left documents in readable strips.
Employees started stacking papers beside the shredder to handle later. One evening, a cleaning contractor accidentally placed the entire pile in the trash.
The business could not recover the documents or determine who may have accessed them. Staff spent weeks investigating the loss and identifying the customers who needed to be notified.

The lesson: An office shredder may work for an occasional page, but it can create delays and unsecured piles when used for larger volumes.

Welcome to our second TALE of TERROR!!!!

Boxes of employee and customer records sat untouched for years in a back storage room. When a pipe burst, employees moved the damaged boxes outside to dry.
Loose papers scattered across the parking lot, and several documents disappeared before the mess was contained.
The company had to determine whose information had been exposed, contact affected individuals, replace damaged records, and pay for emergency cleanup and legal guidance.

The lesson: Review stored records regularly. Once documents have met their retention requirements, securely destroy them instead of allowing them to become a future liability.

Today we share our first tale of terror.

The dumpster discovery
An employee placed outdated customer records in the regular trash. The files included names, addresses, account numbers, and payment information.
Someone found the records before the dumpster was emptied and used the information to make fraudulent purchases.
The business had to investigate the incident, notify affected customers, provide credit monitoring, and respond to angry calls and negative reviews. What seemed like a quick way to clear old files became an expensive security incident.

The lesson: Confidential documents should never be placed in the trash. They should remain secure until they are properly destroyed.
