When it comes to IT asset disposition (ITAD), ignorance is not a defense. Violating compliance laws like HIPAA, GDPR, SOX, or NIST 800-88 can expose your organization to steep fines, legal liability, and irreversible damage to your brand reputation. If you’re disposing of outdated servers, hard drives, or data tapes without proper protocols, your business could already be noncompliant—and vulnerable.

At DES Technologies, we specialize in helping organizations like yours avoid these costly pitfalls. Our certified, audit-ready ITAD services ensure every piece of retired hardware is handled in full compliance with industry and government regulations.

The Hidden Cost of Improper Disposal

Too many companies make the mistake of treating end-of-life IT equipment like ordinary waste. But that’s where risk begins. Improper data disposal can lead to:

  • Violating HIPAA regulations and exposing patient health records

  • Noncompliance with GDPR, resulting in multi-million dollar fines

  • Failing SOX audits, putting financial reporting at risk

  • Breach of client trust, leading to reputational loss

  • Costly legal action, including class-action lawsuits

The solution? Partner with a trusted ITAD provider that understands the full scope of compliance requirements and handles your assets accordingly.
