In response to growing concerns about data stored on office copiers being stolen if a machine is later resold, office equipment dealer and document management services provider Advance is offering hard drive shredding services to destroy hard drives, and the data stored on them, when a machine is no longer in use. Advance is partnering with a National Security Agency approved specialist in data destruction, which will provide the equipment necessary for the hard drive shredding to Advance.
Though every copier Advance leases or sells comes equipped with security features to overwrite data that’s stored on the hard drive and there are additional options to enhance protection, shredding a hard drive is one extra step that can be taken to protect sensitive information.
When a hard drive is being destroyed, it is run through a machine that erases all of the data. It then goes through a shredder and afterward, all of the leftover scraps and metals can be recycled.
Watch the video to learn more about the hard drive shredding process:

Tom Loveland, CEO of Mind Over Machines, was named Baltimore’s “Google Czar” by Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake today.
Earlier this year Google announced plans to build and test ultra-high speed broadband networks in a small number of trial locations in the United States. The company has asked municipalities interested in serving as a trial city to complete a request for information (RFI). In his volunteer role as “Google Czar,” Loveland will help the city complete and submit the RFI, while working to build business support for the effort.
“Baltimore is a tinderbox of innovation. Google Fiber is the spark, a game-changer that could turn Baltimore into a global innovation leader,” Mr. Loveland said. “Mayor Rawlings-Blake understands that and I’m honored to serve the City.”
A number of Maryland Chamber member companies have already lent their support to the grassroots effort, including Johns Hopkins, UnderArmour, Morgan State University, Blue Sky Factory, R2integrated, The Sutter Group, Substance 151, The Maryland Zoo, Global Design Interactive and many others.
