BANNOCKBURN, Ill. , Aug. 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In advance of National Senior Citizens Day on August 21, 2023, and in conjunction with the back-to-school season, Shred-it®, a leading provider in information destruction, is sharing best practices for personal document security to protect "seniors" young and old. As parents are preparing to safely send their children back to school, they may also have their own parents' safety to consider. While certain seniors have financial aid and post-grad paperwork, other seniors have paperwork related to retirement, healthcare plans and more. These information-laden documents need to be kept in a secure place or properly shredded and destroyed, whether at home, in a dorm room, or at retirement facility.
Many are unaware of the amount of information available and at risk when it comes to paper within the home. Junk mail, such as pre-approved credit card offers, ATM receipts, pay stubs and even invitations and save-the-dates all contain information that bad actors can use for identity theft or fraud. Shred-it® recommends a shred-it-all policy for the workplace and at home.
For seniors of all ages, Shred-it® recommends taking the following steps to properly protect and dispose of personal documents that are vulnerable to exposure.
Shred-it® is dedicated to offering document security solutions for high school, college and elderly seniors alike. As data protection requirements and information security best practices continue to evolve, Shred-it® works with businesses and communities to protect what matters. In 2022 alone, Shred-it® securely shredded and recycled 1 billion pounds of paper — safeguarding both confidential information and the environment.
