Data security is crucial for any organization, especially when retiring IT assets. Simply deleting files isn’t enough. Sensitive information on retired devices can still pose serious risks. That’s why partnering with a certified IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) provider, like C&I Electronics Recycling, is essential. As an R2v3 certified ITAD provider, we ensure your data is securely erased or destroyed, minimizing the risk of data breaches. We adhere to strict protocols and industry standards, providing you with documentation that guarantees your data has been properly handled. Our ITAD services also offer environmentally responsible solutions, ensuring your retired IT assets are recycled or repurposed in compliance with environmental regulations. By partnering with C&I, you’re not just securing your data — you’re protecting your company’s reputation and compliance while supporting sustainability efforts. In today’s complex digital landscape, working with a certified ITAD provider isn’t just a best practice. It’s a necessity. Visit us over at C&I Electronics to see what we can do for your outdated IT equipment. >> https://lnkd.in/gsHSXdPt #ITAD #DataSecurity #Sustainability

What is the best way to fund IT needs across various agencies and departments? To improve outcomes, start with a baseline and allocate the resources to the areas of highest risk likelihood and impact. Tools alone are never the answer. You can put the best paintbrush in my hand, but that doesn't make me an artist. The same is true with SIEM, a pen testing tool, or a compliance portal provided to an organization without experience or training to detect and validate threats or how to implement controls to achieve data protection requirements. The shortcut is often to wrap a service around the tool that empowers the organization to learn how to effectively leverage the solution to get to the outcome: https://lnkd.in/eKX2_AAr

My colleague Jeremy Baumruk and I spoke at the Iowa Bankers Association annual conference on the importance of leadership in cyber security Very well attended conference, and it was really exciting to see the energy and excitement around the banking community. In cyber security, I believe that we all put a lot of emphasis in "community", and this is no different in banking. Because we all have industry specific challenges, this is a great way to strategize, and socialize with folks in the same industry to help solve problems! Looking forward to the next conference!

Something I’ve run into recently with several new clients has me quite concerned. Apparently there are a number of assessment/compliance tools that claim to track your progress on implementing NIST SP 800-171, but they give points for POAMs (i.e., if you haven’t even started implementing a particular control, but you check the POAM box, you get points as if you had implemented it). Whether this is a commercial tool you have purchased, or a supply chain management/survey/assessment tool provided to you by a prime contractor ... THIS IS WRONG.
