An undocumented server is a finding waiting to happen
Off-site destruction is secure, and for most volumes it is the right call. But between your loading dock and the processing floor, custody is documented rather than observed.
For servers holding customer records, merger material, or proprietary code, some IT security managers will not accept that window. Serial level tracking removes the ambiguity.
