Data Erasure Solutions

Organizations 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 require management. Kroll Ontrack provides data erasure software, hardware and verification services to ensure that your end-of-life data is erased securely and cost-effectively.

Why is permanent data disposal necessary?

• Your electronically stored data is likely to include many files that you would not want accessed or viewed by people outside of your organization 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.
• Regulatory requirements for data protection and customer privacy demand complete, well documented data disposal.
