Secure Data Erasure

Organisations have an ever increasing volume of data stored across a multitude of media including virtual systems, USB drives, tapes, memory cards, HDD - all of which requires managing. One of the biggest challenges facing organisations, IT providers and IT recycling companies is ensuring end-of-life sensitive data and intellectual property is erased securely and cost-effectively. . Our range of forensic erasure solutions make it easy to ensure that the correct data erasure procedures are integrated into an IT security and end-of-data and asset disposal policy.

Why is permanent data disposal necessary?

  • Electronically stored data is likely to include many files that should not be accessed or viewed by people outside of an organisation or household.
  • Sensitive information that falls into the wrong hands can lead to loss of business, property, or reputation, potentially leading to civil and criminal liability.
  • Simply deleting data from a hard drive does not mean that the data is permanently deleted and inaccessible. Much, if not all, can be recovered, potentially generating a security risk.
  • Regulatory requirements for data protection and customer privacy demand complete, well documented data disposal.
