AERC.com expands through acquisition of DynTek

FLANDERS, N.J. AERC.com through its acquisition earlier this month of DynTek has expanded its data destruction and disposal operations. AERC.com is secure data management and recycling company.

The acquisition, which is aimed to help the new investment strategy of AERC.com’s wholly owned subsidiary Com-Cycle and its electronics recycling business unit focus on rising data security and recycling concerns, includes proprietary secure asset management software and related intellectual property.

“In industries such as health care, confidentiality and privacy are at stake. Protecting the confidential records of these companies – and their patients and customers – is of utmost importance,” Lindsay Landmesser, vice president of sales, said. “The new software program and end-of-market asset management software offer new options for research centers, medical centers, hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, patient service centers, and health care clinics with concerns about data security and waste hazard risks.”

“The investment not only strengthens our ability to meet these escalating security threats in health care and other sectors, but it provides a secure audit trail for compliance with HIPAA and similar regulations,” said Peter Jegou, chief executive officer of AERC.com and Com-Cycle.
