Podcast: Data erasure as a service and data erasure as an opportunity
Blancco Technology Group Announces Partnership Agreement with SHI International “What are you going to erase that,” asks Christina Walker, Global Director of Channel Sales and Programs at Blancco. In this podcast, Walker discusses in detail proper erasure, with an “audit trail” and without destroying the device. Walker points out that users often make the error of thinking that the physical destruction of an IT product is the same as actually permanently erasing the data that can remain. Walker outlines her company’s “Erasure-as-a-Service”. Walker updates us on erasure as we move into the cloud and talks about the “right to be forgotten”. We also learn about the partner, channel and MSP community opportunities, a critical activity since the channel is often on the front line of migration and therefore are a part of the process of retiring end of life equipment. Walker also describes Blancco’s new partnership with SHI International (read press release). “SHI is really focused on a wholistic approach to their clients,” says Walker. We learn about how Blancco’s unique services fit into SHI’s comprehensive approach to the data cycle. Visit Blancco’s Channel Program Page and please visit www.blancco.com.
