How Secure Shredding Helps Local Businesses Stay Compliant with Regulations

Writer: Jamie RamJamie Ram

Why Compliance Matters

Local businesses must adhere to regulations like:


  • HIPAA for healthcare providers, which mandates the secure disposal of patient records.

  • FACTA, which requires financial institutions to shred documents containing consumer credit data.

  • GLBA, applicable to financial institutions, to protect non-public customer information.


Failing to comply with these regulations can result in fines, legal issues, and reputational damage.


The Role of Secure Shredding in Compliance


  1. Convenient and Transparent Mobile Shredding

    With RAM Shredding’s mobile shredding service, businesses can witness the shredding process onsite, ensuring that sensitive documents are destroyed securely. This service provides peace of mind and proof of compliance with data protection laws.

  2. Regular Service Options for Continuous Compliance

    Businesses generating high volumes of sensitive data can schedule recurring shredding to prevent information buildup. This ensures continuous compliance with regulations like FACTA and HIPAA.

  3. Certificates of Destruction for Audit Protection

    A key compliance requirement is documenting the secure destruction of sensitive materials. RAM Shredding provides Certificates of Destruction, offering businesses the necessary documentation for audits and inspections.
