Information theft, “the crime of the 21st century”, is the fastest growing financial crime in North America.

Every day businesses and organizations discard confidential data like client and patient information, legal documents, price lists, invoices, sales figures, correspondence and memos containing proprietary information. Confidential material thrown into the dumpster is readily available to anyone looking for marketable information.

Information theft is a target of well-organized local and international crime rings that claim millions of victims each year costing businesses and organizations billions of dollars in losses. As well, individual victims of identity theft suffer greatly from financial loss and emotional distress when left with the arduous task of trying to clear their name, their reputation and their credit rating.

Aside from revealing competitive information, improperly discarded documents are a source of confidential information used for the creation of false credit cards and present a serious security risk when used for the creation of false identities for birth certificates, driver’s licenses and passports.
