Vote for Techbuyer in the 2019 Computing Security Awards

We’re delighted to announce that we’ve been shortlisted for ‘Secure Data Erasure Company of the Year’ at the Computing Security Awards 2019! The Computing Security Awards showcase the most innovative, successful and secure practices in the IT industry, including anti-virus solutions, network security and anti-phishing solutions.  

 

We have been nominated for this award thanks to our specialist ITAD (Information Technology Asset Disposition) service, which has been in operation since 2005. Using WhiteCanyon, the world’s most certified data erasure software, we ensure that all data is securely sanitised from IT equipment.

 

Techbuyer’s ITAD service provides a zero risk solution thanks to a variety of security measures we have in place. These include security checks for all our staff, 24-hour CCTV surveillance for all facilities and vehicles, and accreditation with IASME governance for data security and Cyber Essentials. We have also recently passed ADISA’s strict accreditation process with merit, which only 40 out of 600 ITAD companies in the UK have passed.

 

Our secure ITAD service means that we can securely refurbish IT hardware. By sanitising all customer data and rigorously testing all IT equipment, we create a quality refurbished IT equipment which is then reused, expertly processing over 30,000kg of refurbished IT hardware every month which might otherwise be destroyed. As part of this circular process, we reuse over 99% of everything we receive and recycle the remainder, ensuring no hardware is wasted before its end of life.

 

Danny McShane, Head of ITAD at Techbuyer commented that “We are really pleased to have been nominated for this award. With more data protection legislation such as GDPR emerging, we are seeing an increasing number of companies needing a specialist ITAD service. It is great to be able to provide our clients with complete peace of mind that their data will be safeguarded.”

 

Voting is open now and closes on 8th October 2019. If you would to vote for Techbuyer as ‘Secure Data Erasure Company of the Year’, you can do so here. It would be really appreciated!
