As part of our corporate mandate to decrease information security breaches and identity theft in Canada we offer complimentary Information Security Audits; one company at a time.

• Full assessment of your information destruction program for security, government compliance and cost-efficiency.
• A report comprising recommended actions if your current information security is vulnerable.

Peace of mind knowing whether your organization's confidential documents are completely secure and your process is PIPEDA/PHIPA compliant.

If your information security program is vulnerable, we will have the opportunity to propose our unique information destruction program that will get your information security process back on track, but you're not obligated to give us this opportunity.
