Security Tip of the Week
Clean and Go Green - Device Disposal
You are at the center of secURity.
What is the best way to dispose of University electronic devices? University IT offers easy and secure recycling for consumer electronics from all University departments. Information about electronic equipment disposal can be found at http://www.rochester.edu/it/security/data/disposal.html
For personal devices, there are several places that now accept old equipment to be recycled. Before providing your device to such a place, or passing it along to anyone else, please be sure to remove all data from the device. For cell phones, this should include performing a factory reset. If you are unsure of how to do this, please see your cell phone manufacturers web site.
