Mobile Pedestals — Expert Answer

Are there compliance requirements for document storage in mobile pedestals?

Mobile pedestals storing sensitive documents may be subject to regulatory requirements depending on the document type: HIPAA-covered medical records must be in locked storage when not in use — a locking pedestal qualifies if the lock is engaged; GDPR and CCPA personal data files should be in locked storage accessible only to authorized personnel; SOX financial records should be in locked, documented storage. A mobile pedestal with a bar lock (locking all drawers simultaneously) is sufficient for most regulatory document storage requirements, provided the lock is engaged at end of day and key control is documented.
