Risk management involves the identification of possible risks to a business that can hinder or disrupt its operations, and setting up measures that would mitigate these risks. Risks can include disasters such as earthquakes, fires, and terrorism, and threats from individuals or entities, such as sabotage.

One of the effects of these risks is the loss of important documents that a company needs for the continuity of its operations. They can also result in the leaking of confidential information to the wrong persons, which can be used against the company or the individuals in it. One of the best ways to avoid such possibilities is to subscribe to the services of a document management company.

A document management company typically offers the following services: document storage, document shredding, and document scanning. They provide secure boxes and facilities where important documents are stored and protected round-the-clock. The document storage service also often comes with a cataloguing and security system that informs you when a document is retrieved, and keeps you posted on the location of any document.

A document shredding service allows the thorough destruction of documents containing confidential information that may be used in individual or corporate identity thefts. A document scanning service archives digital copies of your documents within a system that allows you to retrieve the copies any time you want, and provide back-ups as added protection from document hard copy loss.
