Fully Auditable Erasure Process

Successful erasure alone is not enough, because proof of erasure is necessary for auditing purposes. Detailed, auditable proof of the erasure is mandatory for compliance, regulatory and legal requirements. A comprehensive audit also provides important documentation about an asset’s lifecycle.

Detailed erasure reports

Blancco generates comprehensive erasure reports to provide critical information for the auditing process, such as:

• Condition of the hardware
• Relevant serial numbers and asset tags
• Software details for license harvesting
• How and by whom the erasure was done

Compliance with industry regulations

Blancco provides detailed reporting and auditing information for compliance with industry standards and regulations such as ISO 15408, ISO 27001, FISMA, HIPAA, SOX, FACT, ACT, GLBA and PCI DSS.
