1 IT Asset Disposition ITAD Trends Report Arrow IT Asset Disposition Trends Report The data is in, and IT-industry practitioners have made it clear that concern over data security is the number one reason to implement an IT asset disposition strategy. This trend isn t surprising considering the ongoing media reports about data breaches and retired assets found to contain sensitive data. Companies are becoming more aware of penalties arising from improper disposal of IT assets. There is a heightened awareness among IT managers and stakeholders of the need to include IT asset disposition (ITAD) as a strategic business solution, with the number of companies budgeting for ITAD up 38% over 2012 data. Despite the increased focus on data security, there appears to be some uncertainty (among the companies surveyed) surrounding the actual data security methods, with a misunderstanding of the most effective methods of ensuring data destruction. About Arrow Arrow s group provides specialized IT asset disposition (ITAD) and reverse supply chain solutions that protect clients brands, reduce their risks, and enable technology users to uncover opportunities for greater efficiencies and value capture at the end of the IT product lifecycle. Innovating in ITAD services for more than 15 years, Arrow s business is among the leaders in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for IT Asset Disposition, Worldwide. Environmental issues continue to rank highly among IT asset disposition concerns. Although the adoption of industry-recognized compliance standards is the most important factor in selecting a 3rd-party provider, just which standards are the most important is not entirely clear. As might be anticipated, companies with more than 50,000 employees show significantly higher adoption rates across nearly all compliance standards surveyed than do smaller companies. In comparing the e-stewards standard with the R2 standard, most (59%) of the companies surveyed said the standards are equally important and an astonishing 88% felt they should be combined. In addition to data security and environmental standards, concerns over the financial and legal risks associated with the proper disposition of electronic assets are strong motivators for companies employing an ITAD strategy. Shifts in technology trends such as Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), a great emphasis on the cloud, and ongoing concerns regarding the implications of these various trends on data security continue to compel companies to expand their IT asset disposition program and data security policies. Corporate social responsibility and sustainability have gained widespread momentum; however, there is strong evidence that many end users still don t handle electronics properly - from either an environmental or a data security perspective. As the business environment continues to evolve with the adoption of so many new devices, it is clear that companies are paying more attention to the need for an IT asset disposition strategy. A well-planned ITAD strategy is necessary to mitigate risks and protect the organization and brand. arrowvaluerecovery.com
