IT Asset Disposition & Data Security with Rocco D'Amico | CyberSound Podcast by Vancord | Ep 111

In this September 2024 episode of CyberSound™, Vancord's cybersecurity podcast, co-hosts Jason, Michael and Steve sit down with Rocco D'Amico, CEO of Brass Valley, to discuss the critical impact of IT asset disposition (ITAD) on data security and regulatory compliance.  Rocco highlights essential best practices for secure data destruction, focusing on NIST 800-88 standards for data erasure and hard drive shredding, while exposing the risks of outdated methods like DoD 5220.22-M. The conversation stresses the importance of maintaining a proper chain of custody to safeguard sensitive information.

Rocco also introduces Brass Valley's innovative circular economy initiative, which repurposes decommissioned IT assets and donates laptops to students in Ghana. This episode is a must-listen for businesses aiming to enhance their data protection strategy, stay compliant, and implement sustainable IT asset management practices.
