Asset Disposal and Information Security Alliance

The Asset Disposal and Information Security Alliance (ADISA) is an organization that recommends standards for safely disposing of information technology (IT) equipment while minimizing the risk of exposure and misuse of any sensitive data stored on that equipment.[1] The ADISA standards cover all phases of IT asset disposal including the collection, transportation, storage, erasure or destruction of components containing data, and recycling or waste disposal. Certification included periodic audits.

Founded in 2010, the ADISA publishes separate versions of the standard for Asia/Pacific, the European Union, North America and the United Kingdom. The ADISA IT Asset Disposal Security Standard is recognized as an industry standard of merit by the UK Defence Infosec Product Co-Operation Group (DIPCOG).[2]
