Protect Your Data Before Selling, Donating, or Disposing of Your Old Computer
Protecting your personal and business data is critical when selling, donating, or disposing of an old computer. Simply deleting files or reformatting the hard drive doesn’t fully erase your information—specialized tools can recover it. To ensure your data is secure and cannot be misused, the hard drive must be professionally sanitized by overwriting all data. Without proper sanitization, sensitive details like passwords, financial records, and business files may remain accessible.
