Datasafe Information Security, an independent document destruction firm focused on the secure shredding of documents, computers and electronic devices with an eye toward preserving security, celebrates its 29th anniversary (an impressive milestone in the history of any business) with an even more impressive statistic.
Rick Carey, the firm’s founder, announced that Datasafe has securely shredded 550 million documents, with no identity theft or breaches.
Firm founder Rick Carey launched Datasafe (destruction.com) after a career in security and law enforcement in 1990. Clients Datasafe has worked with in the past three decades include Harvard, Xerox, Dana Farber Cancer Institute, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
As the firm approaches its 30th anniversary (in 2020), Datasafe has seen its mission expand from the destruction of paper goods to include electronics (including computer hard drives), expired foods, counterfeit goods, and defective products, to name some items. They are one of the last remaining document destruction firms in the state under independent ownership. Datasafe provides destruction for industries across a wide range of businesses, and they differentiate themselves from the competition with their commitment to an impenetrable chain of secure custody of documents and a strong local emphasis on personalized customer service.
Eric Carey, Partner, said, “It’s outstanding to reach this milestone.” He added, “In this climate where security is on everyone’s mind it’s important now more than ever to see that anything with sensitive information is stored securely and when it has reached the end of its life, that it is destroyed so that information does not fall into the wrong hands.”
