Paper

Use a shredder. Crosscut is preferred over a strip shredder. 

Disposal of paper records containing Private or Confidential  information should be accomplished by crosscut (or better) shredding, placement in a locked document destruction bin, or through vendor-supplied services under a contract approved by Purchasing.

CD, DVD, diskette, etc.

Use the media shredder (located at the ITS HelpDesk, 7B-1113).

If the hard drive is damaged or will not be reused, render the hard drive unreadable by using the degausser (located at the ITS HelpDesk, 7B-1113).

Tapes

Use the degausser (located at the ITS HelpDesk, 7B-1113).
