Topic: Net Access Data Center & Securis Data Destruction & Hard Drive Shredding Demonstration.
 Securis is an IT asset disposal and secure data destruction company. This includes mobile on-site hard drive shredding service. Certified, environmentally responsible, reliable, and ultra-secure. Securis typically works with organizations that occasionally bring in new hardware technology but are unsure of how to properly dispose of their old IT assets. These assets sometimes have critical data which if unintentionally breached or compromised, could cause major problems. Clients receive a detailed inventory report of all serialized assets picked up and all hard drives destroyed. A Certificate of Destruction & Recycling is also provided to make certain clients are well covered and protected when audits are conducted. Recent Securis clients include Novo Nordisk Pharmaceutical, the Diocese of Metuchen, Stark & Stark Attorneys at Law, Sun National Bank, and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. 

You are welcome to bring your own drives to drop into the mobile shredder. Securis will be happy to accept anyone's personal eWaste as well if you care to bring it along. Acceptable items: computers, laptops, servers, routers, hubs, switches, printers, monitors, mice, keyboards, power supplies, stereos, DVD/VCRs, miscellaneous cords & cables.

Presentation: ""You the Product- The 2016 Update !!"

 
George explains:

In a recent Forrester Research paper, they predicted that allcompanies will become either digital predators or digital prey by 2020 - Whatare you doing to "Keep Pace" with the technologies that aredisrupting the marketplace so that you can successfully manage future projects?

Building upon his 2014 version of "You the Product", thisupdated version explores new dimensions of how to think of yourself as aproduct by examining other phases of product development such as:

- Market Assessment -  Technology investments being made today setting the stage for 2020 and beyond

- Competitive Analysis - Examples of how those technologies are being used today 

- The "raw materials" your "Product" will need to assemble the next version of your product

Participants can view the 2014version of the presentation, which is available at:  You The Product

Brian, I want to be the first one this year THANKING YOU for all what you do for The Breakfast Club and your continued support for many other groups that you embrace and provide assistance. I see many others on this list who deserve similar thanks. All of them have a high dosage of altruism in their DNA and they also deserve recognition. I am not going to name everyone but I feel compelled to single out Tom Donohue. Week after week he labors long hours to put together his list of weekly and monthly events. Tom, you certainly deserve as well a BIG thank you from all of us and those that read your publication.
