Cintas Document Management issues top five tips for online data protection

Cintas Document Management issues top five tips for online data protection

 

WEST CHESTER, OH (FOX19) - In honor of Data Privacy Day on Jan. 28, Cintas Corporation (NASDAQ: CTAS), a leader in secure document management services, included mobile paper shredding trucks, has issued five tips for protecting personal information online.

According to a survey conducted in May 2011 by the Pew Internet and American Life Project, 78 percent of U.S. adults use the Internet. With the increased use of social networking websites, e-mail and online shopping, consumers need to be increasingly vigilant to guard against cyber-thieves when transmitting credit card numbers, home addresses and other confidential information online.

“In today’s digital age, we disclose a high amount of personal information on the Internet,” said Karen Carnahan, President and COO, Cintas Document Management. “It’s important to take the necessary precautions to protect yourself and your family from identity theft.”

IKEA installs solar-energy system at West Chester store

WEST CHESTER, OH (FOX19)-

IKEA has officially plugged-in the solar energy system installed at its West Chester store. 

The 128,000-square-foot PV array consists of a 1,026-kW system, built with 4,186 panels. The program will produce approximately 1,334,300 kWh of clean electricity annually, the equivalent of reducing 1,014 tons of carbon dioxide, eliminating the emissions of 180 cars or powering 115 homes yearly.

This investment by IKEA reinforces the company's long-term commitment to sustainability and confidence in photovoltaic (PV) technology.  IKEA owns and operates each of its solar PV energy systems atop its buildings – as opposed to a solar lease or PPA (power purchase agreement) – and this West Chester installation represents the 14th completed solar energy project for IKEA in the United States, with 23 more locations underway.
