As global organizations mark Cybersecurity Awareness Month, SK tes is sounding the alarm on a critical yet often ignored threat: the mishandling of end-of-life IT equipment. The Singapore-based firm, a leader in secure IT asset disposition (ITAD), is urging companies to treat retired hardware as a frontline cybersecurity concern—not just a logistical afterthought. “Every data breach doesn’t start with a hacker—it can start with a forgotten hard drive,” says Tom Hoof, Group IT Director at SK tes.
