For those of us in the IT of Healthcare,
HIPAA has changed a lot of things and lead to better design patterns, frankly, but
how scared is too scared? The funny part is that in reading this article, one is lead
to believe that the shredder is HIPAA compliant, not that it helps your company comply
with HIPAA. I think I am going to start selling “HIPAA COMPLIANT”
on a tee-shirt.

Rip Up Those CDsMary E. Behr – PC MagazineYou shred your important papers every time the Feds bang on your door;
why not shred your incriminating CDs and DVDs as well? Alera Technologies’ new DVD/CD
Shredder Plus is a scary little machine that uses carbon steel blades and a 1.2-horsepower
motor to cut DVDs, CDs, floppy disks, and credit cards into small, unusable strips,
forever eliminating unauthorized use. The unit is HIPAA-compliant and includes a four-gallon
container to catch the shards.http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=1738&e=5&u=/zd/20040730/tc_zd/131744 [Original
