Subject: [SECURITY] Policies for Equipment Disposal - computers and
other devices with memory

I am on the hunt for a sample policy that addresses disposal of
equipment that have memory/hard drives specifically related to
regulatory compliance. We have the computer side but I am wondering what
others are doing around copiers, pda's, cellphones, etc.
