Thousands of computers change owners daily, what happens to the information stored within them?
Have you ever wondered where all the information from your computer goes when you press delete? It is no longer accessible, but it does remain on the hard drive. It’s not only your own confidential documents but also your partner’s information that you have stored, not to mention e-mails, temp-files, IP addresses etc. If that computer is then passed on into someone else’s possession, that data can be recovered with specialist software. In case they are published, what could be your financial or PR consequences?
Commands Delete or Format will not erase data from computer hard drive
What information would you not let a stranger read from your computer?
As deleting or formatting does not work effectively, your information can be easily recovered and read by a stranger. When a deletion or formatting is carried out, all that happens is that the structure of the File Allocation Table (FAT) is altered – all the information is still on the hard drive. There are companies that specialise in retrieving deleted information, and software can be purchased freely on the Internet, which does a similar job. Sounds worrying, doesn’t it? It’s so easy for information to fall into the wrong hands, even when you think every measure possible has been taken.
Have you considered what will happen when the “Mandatory Recycling” of computers takes place in the European Union and North America.
Blancco has a solution!
How would you like a simple, easy-to-use piece of software that takes all your cares away? Blancco Data Cleaner will clean all the data from your hard drive so that none of your commercial or personal information can ever be accessed again by any existing technologies and without harming the media.
100% secure data erasure, HW inventory list and HDD reformatting in the same process!
Blancco Data Cleaner is based on a system called Septem OverWrite (SOW) method, which was developed in Finland by Blancco. The software overwrites every track on the hard disk with new data. This overwriting is carried out a freely selected number of times. Seven times overwriting is the recommended level from the U.S. Department of Defence (DoD) and NATO. Any data that was on the hard drive can never be accessed again; it truly has been removed. This has been fully tested and verified by the independent IT testing organisation (NSTL). After the drive is erased the hard drive is automatically reformatted (FAT 32) ready for reuse. At the end of the process, a hardware inventory report is created giving you details of the installed components within the system e.g. Processor speed, hard drive, graphics card, sound card, network card...
Blancco service integration according to customers need!
There are also choices of how you can access Blancco Data Cleaner. You can of course obtain it on a ready-made diskette or you could consider using our Application Service Provider (ASP). You simply access the Internet page, type in your username and password then distribute or download your software licenses to a diskette – precisely when and where you need them. Additionally Blancco Data Cleaner can also be integrated into your Local Area Network (LAN) Server and in this way the data erasure service can cover all computers connected into the server.
Such an effective piece of software is also extremely easy to use. Even the most computer phobic person can use it without any cause for a headache. Just ensure that you have made a back-up on a removable media of the data that you wish to keep. Insert the Blancco Data Cleaner diskette into drive ‘A’ and follow the on-screen instructions. The software is also available in a variety of languages, so it will always remain as simple as possible to use.
Insure your data security and earn extra profit from your computers disposal
Once the computer’s hard disk(s) have been treated with Blancco Data Cleaner, you will never need to worry about it ever again. The computer is completely re-usable, there is no need to break or destroy the hard drive for security reasons because all the information has been removed.
By selling the computer on the second hand market you can earn extra profit, especially by using the inventory list per computer as provided by BDC automatically. You may of course transfer it to another department or donate it without any security risk.
