Kroll Ontrack has launched a hosted erase solution to empower businesses to easily and securely manage their data erasure projects. Hosted erase is deployed via the Blancco Management Console, freeing small and medium-sized businesses from the setup, operation and cost of the administration infrastructure such as reporting servers or SQL databases.
“Data erasure is critical to data management, but it is one of many solutions and processes for IT to manage. Whether carrying out a sanitisation project on old devices before recycling, disposing of them or safely removing data before reusing a set of devices, businesses want a secure and certified erasure solution that is easy to deploy and manage,” said Paul Le Messurier, Programme and Operations Manager at Kroll Ontrack. “Kroll Ontrack hosted erase does just that. It takes the setup and maintenance burden away from businesses while also ensuring that no trace of company data resides on the devices in question.”
Hosted erase is available through the purchase of a licence pack (25 to 500 licences). By registering for an online account, businesses can immediately begin performing erasures and manage secure deletion from devices such as mobiles, laptops, PCs and small servers. Additional benefits of the hosted erase solution include:
Centralised web management of all deletion processes
Simple online management of expired licences without installation of HASP key or licence manager
Simple installation of Blancco erase software on the user machines to securely delete data from computers and mobile devices
Comprehensive reporting of all erasure processes to track compliance with internal and external policies
