Research has indicated that the
hospitality sector accounts for 12% of
all global breaches, 28% of which are
caused by employee error or negligence.
Hotels process and store a vast amount
of sensitive data, making them a major
target for malicious threat actors.
A hotel-wide audit found
that each of the group’s 30
properties used a di erent
system for data storage
and disposal. Shred-it’s
secure information disposal
services were identified as
the most reliable, flexible and coste
ective solution, and each hotel
now has regular console collections
in addition to making use of the ad
hoc shredding service for extensive
data and paper clear outs.
Shred-it’s services have also
proven their worth for members of
Village Hotel Club’s new VWorks coworking
concept. With a 500-strong
membership holding many critical business
conversations and meetings, there was a concern
that confidential documents could be le behind.
Ian Osborne, VP UK & Ireland for Shred-it, states:
“An important step in this process has been to
train sta to recognise what constitutes sensitive
information and how to store and dispose of it
securely.” For more information visit
