Secure Data Erasure

 Delete, format, fdsik and other commands do not remove data from your hard drive. These commands only alter the structure of the drive, leaving your confidential information intact and easily recoverable with available software tools.
More technologically advanced tools make it possible to retrieve data from almost any magnetic medium, depending on the amount of time and resources that you have at your disposal.
Most users consider the delete and format commands as the logical and only means of deleting sensitive or unwanted files. The result is similar to sweeping something under the rug: “It is still there, just invisible.” With the delete command you only remove the file’s indicator, but the file itself remains and can be restored quickly and easily with the help of dedicated software. The situation is the same with the format or fdisk commands.

"What would your business partners, customers or patients say if you were the one responsible for leaking their business data or personal information to the public?"

"Have you ever asked yourself what happened to the data on the computers, discs and USB keys that you sold, discarded or moved to another workplace? Did you really erase it or do these data carriers still contain information that could put you or your company in an awkward position?"

Even if a hard drive has been completely erased, formatted and overwritten, it is still possible to
retrieve data using the latest technologies, such as PRML and Magnetic Force Microscopy.

The number of obsolete and discarded computers is increasing every day, but more and more are also being restored and reused, both within an organisation or outside it. The same applies to other data carriers, such as tapes and USB keys. Because their data is not erased properly, they have recently become the principal source of information leakage.

iStor SDE ensure reliable data erasure for all types of media, from hard drives to magnetic tapes and USB keys. This allows us to provide security in accordance with rules and regulations such as FISMA, HIPPA, SOX, FACT ACT and GLBA.

There are more and more examples of individuals and criminal organisations looking for or even buying discarded computers and discs with the intent of obtaining sensitive information and using it to illegally make money.

We cooperate with the leading companies in the field of security and this allows us to implement the latest technologies pursuant to the most recent regulations in our solutions and services.

As with any other security process, data erasure is without meaning if there is no proper proof of the process. The iStor SDE solutions feature digitally signed reports for each process performed, which even surpass the legal requirements and regulations on data erasure and termination.

A 100% reliable data erasure from unused, broken or sold off data carriers is an important concern for any good manager and is also an ethical obligation towards all our customers and partners.
"iStor SDE helps to ensure that your sensitive data is securely erased."
