Government SSD Destruction: Sustainable, Security-Focused Changes are Needed

The call to greater environmental sustainability is undeniable.
With its enormous spending power and widespread impact, federal and local governments are adopting more sustainable practices—from construction processes, fuel consumption, and more.

The alternative?
Confident reuse that matches destruction in security effectiveness, reduces e-waste, and extracts more value from the public sector’s IT investment.
