With time and technology progresses we all have replaced the old personal computers and notebooks with others by better performance. It 'appeared necessary to get rid of the previous computer but also of old floppy, CD-ROM, DVD and pendrive.
As for the recycling of PCs are on second to force the WEEE, the European Directives 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC and Leg. 151/2005, relating to manufacturers, importers and retailers own brand of equipment Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) become responsible for managing the products that distribute and sell the end use. On new units is to carry the symbol as to warn the consumer not to throw them away after use but returned to the dealer who is required to withdraw.
needed, however to attention to the elimination of personal data contained hardware and media that we use regularly, eg. date and place of birth, bank account numbers, medical data, etc.. relevance of our or third parties such as customers or suppliers, as determined by Leg. 196/2003, which sanctions administrative and criminal penalties have been increased recently from the cd DL 207/2008. milleproroghe decree.
In technical terms I refer to the so-called e-waste and secure deletion affects all those who use PCs and not only professionals but also ordinary citizens and companies which may also make known their sensitive data to attackers as example, those who seek to steal personal information with the now famous mail asking to promote the transfer of fabulous sums from African countries promised substantial rewards.
The Guarantor for the protection of personal data spoke about it with a decision of 13 October 2008 and a card Information published on the corporate website on December 12 last year.
In summary stated that all officers should ensure that erasure of personal data contained in PCs and other supports to keep them before you discard it and the site http://www.garanteprivacy.it/ was published a handbook for secure deletion of data.
According to the Guarantor required the physical destruction to the CD-ROM and DVD-R, it is suggested the use of "wiping program - cleaning programs" or " file shredder - destroyers tab, that make writing repeatedly in the blank areas of the hard disk random sequences of binary digits to prevent retrieval of information by electronic means of data recovery. Then there is the formatting "low level" and demagnetization allowing quick erase of the information.
For professionals and companies is good practice to save the files on portable storage devices, DVD and CD-ROM, which occupy a small space, keeping them in a safe place for at least a decade archiving practices.
It is not unlikely in fact having to need to dig up old practices which occurred after several years or having to revise for finding value for new tasks or procedures to treat.
