Relocating IT assets like servers, data centres, and office equipment can be complex. It’s even more sensitive when company data is at risk. Without the right security, moving these assets can lead to data breaches. At ACT Logistics, we make sure your data is safe at every step of the IT Asset Relocation process. Our approach complies with international standards like ISO 27001.
Since it’s Cyber Security Month, let’s talk about why protecting your data during IT relocations is so important.
Key Points:
- The risks of data breaches during relocations.
- How ACT Logistics secures your assets.
- Why ISO 27001 is critical for data protection.
Understanding the Risks of Data Breaches
Moving IT equipment without the right protections can expose your sensitive data to risks like unauthorised access, data loss, or theft. Whether you’re relocating an office IT setup or migrating a data centre, ensuring data security is essential.
Common Risks Include:
- Losing control of IT assets during the move.
- Mishandling devices with sensitive information.
- Failing to use encryption or secure transport.
Even one misplaced device can result in a data breach, which could cost your company both money and reputation. At ACT Logistics, we handle everything with care, using strict security protocols, including ISO-certified data sanitisation, and secure transportation.
