Information Management Solution Lawyers
As security incidents continue to threaten businesses, it is crucial to employ appropriate document retention and destruction strategies. Many states require business to take all reasonable steps to destroy records by shredding, erasing, or otherwise modifying the personal information to make it unreadable or undecipherable. Additionally, there are a number of state laws that require businesses to maintain reasonable security procedures and practices appropriate to the nature of the information to protect from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure.
