[Year 12 IT Apps] Laws Related to Disposal of Data

[Margaret Iaquinto]

I personally know of two netadmins who take the backup tapes and slice them up with a pair of scissors.
Also, beware of dumpster divers.

"NPP4. Data Security
An organisation must take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information that it collects is protected from misuse such as unauthorised access, modification or disclosure, or loss."

Failing to safely dispose of data could make it available to unauthorised people (e.g. not wiping disks before reselling
computers.)
