Beyond the Beltway 2025

Have you ever wondered what happens to your agency's old computers and smartphones?

IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) – management of the entire lifecycle of IT assets, from procurement to disposal – is a crucial part of the cybersecurity process that often gets overlooked. Many agencies make the mistake of handling this process on their own, which can lead to serious data security risks. Proper ITAD requires specialized tools to ensure sensitive information is truly eliminated before a device is recycled – because simply reformatting a disk drive doesn't completely erase the data; it only removes the pointers to the files. Improper ITAD can expose your organization to data breaches, privacy violations, and environmental damage. With AI-powered cyberattacks on the rise, secure ITAD has never been more critical.
