Data Erasure Insights for ITADs
Sometimes, physically destroying IT assets isn’t enough. To ensure complete data sanitization, you need to use software-based overwriting to remove sensitive data from your customers’ IT assets prior to destruction. You’ll guarantee compliance with the most rigorous data privacy and protection standards and receive a Certificate of Erasure with each erasure instance to prove to customers you’ve done so.
Use the following resources for updates and insights about data erasure and its role in the ITAD industry.
