Data sanitisation for data centre assets

Whether you’re planning a cloud migration or preparing for a technical refresh, it’s crucial to integrate data sanitisation into your management process and maintain control over your sensitive data assets until your servers or data centres are decommissioned.

Our certified data sanitisation platform, Teraware™, operates at scale, wiping data across your entire data centre, a singular data centre room or a closet of servers. We’ve got you covered.

You can ensure accurate asset counts through discovery processes that cross-check asset lists with physical hardware comparisons.

Teraware was designed from the ground up to handle multiple users and multiple concurrent jobs in hyperscale and enterprise environments, though it can effectively scale to solve for a variety of use cases including:

• Large on-premises data centres
• Single room data centres in co-location facilities
• Single server units

Capabilities

• 100% sector-verified erasure guaranteed
• 95% of data centre drives are fully sanitised providing an industry-leading erasure rate
• Most storage types are supported and receive a certificate of sanitisation
• Sanitise efficiently by concurrently erasing drives, regardless of the quantity, reducing sanitisation time from weeks or months to days
• Receive automated reports and certificates of sanitisation for each erased drive
• Discovery and reconciliation cross-checks compare asset lists to physical hardware to ensure accuracy

Compliant with industry standards

Iron Mountain recognises the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-88 as an ideal framework for device sanitisation.
