How to Manage Asset Disposal Risks
Disposing of old IT assets without proper procedures creates security and compliance risks.
The Problem
- Old laptops given to employees without data sanitisation
- Disposed assets not removed from registry
- No record of what was disposed and when
- E-waste compliance not followed
The Solution
- Create disposal policy with approval workflow
- Require certified data sanitisation before disposal
- Use only CPCB-registered e-waste recyclers
- Update asset registry immediately on disposal
- Collect and file disposal certificates
The Result
Companies with disposal policies reduce data breach risk and pass compliance audits.
