Everything remotely sensitive should be locked up and there are random checks to do so. I am part of the random check process. We check for locked cabinets/drawers etc and there are penalties and repercussions if things are not locked up. Shredder bins etc are all locked tightly and there are specific instructions for disposal. We even go through trash cans as part of our process.
In the last decade or so all of this has really tightened up.
that's just detail though and doesn't change the point which I agree with. The only reason I point it out is we've gotten really extreme about things, however I'm not sure the WH has gotten the memo..
