🔐 Computer Security Day is a good reminder... that not all risks live in the cloud.
Some of the biggest data breaches we see?
They don’t start with hackers.
They start with forgotten hard drives. Untracked laptops. Retired kit sat gathering dust in a cupboard.
It’s easy to focus on firewalls and passwords but what about the kit you’ve stopped using?
✅ 20% of UK data breaches come from old hardware
✅ Most don’t realise how exposed they are until audit season
✅ And even fewer know that secure disposal can also drive ESG impact
At ALS, we turn security risks into social value:
• Devices wiped to ADISA Standard 8.0 (DIAL 3 Distinction)
• Certified, audit-ready reports delivered within 20 days
• Equipment refurbished, resold, recycled or donated – never ending up in landfill!
If your office has drawers full of devices you’re not sure about — let’s chat.
We’ll get them off your plate, off your risk register, and into the hands of people who need them.
