Secure erasure solutions for data centers
Data centers contain
massive amounts of customer data that is protected by industry standards
and regulations like PCI DSS, HIPAA and Sarbanes-Oxley. Blancco’s data erasure
solutions address requirements for
tighter security with automated erasure processes, including auditable erasure
reports for regulatory purposes.
We offer solutions for a variety of common mass storage hardware and
configurations, ranging from disks and servers to complex storage systems. Our data
erasure solutions are especially critical in protecting against data leaks as
hardware changes hands.
Examples of use:
- End-of-lifecycle
When recycling data center equipment or removing them from use, it is essential to permanently erase all data. Due to risks associated with chain of custody, data sanitization must occur before equipment leaves the premises.
- Reuse or remarketing
When reselling or reassigning equipment, secure data removal is necessary to prevent data leaks, as well as for legislative and regulatory requirements.
- Returning equipment to OEMs or service providers
To eliminate the risk of data loss during transport, it is essential to sanitize data before data center equipment is shipped to OEMs or service providers.
