Filing Cabinets

You may be thinking, why would an office or home office need a filing cabinet. Are we not living in the digital age where we all our information is stored electronically on our computers?

Yes, you are correct, however, there are still many benefits to keeping paper copies of important documents and records.

For example, storing paper copies offline is an excellent way to ensure your documents are secure from network breaches by hackers or by unauthorized personnel looking to profit from your confidential data.

Also, digital storage methods have changed so much in the last 30 years and they continue changing. Each time you convert a file to a new format or transfer it from one storage device to another, you risk losing data quality or the entire content itself.

Paper documents, stored in a controlled environment with no outside influence of moisture and drastic temperature changes, can potentially last more than 200 years.

Computers can fail, hard drives can become corrupt, causing you to lose your data or requiring you to begin the painful and long process of file recovery.

File recovery methods for electronic data is not always 100% successful.

The last benefit to mention is the permanence of file destruction is absolute with paper documents. With digital files, even if a file is deleted, they still can be found through extraction methods and multiple copies may exist in different locations that you forget about.

For any successful business in this modern era, it is necessary to utilize a mix of both digital and paper storage for essential and confidential documents. This is where filing cabinets come into the picture.
