Case Study: Xperien achieves secure, compliant data erasure with Blancco

Providing Certifiable, Secure Data Erasure to South Africa in Compliance with the PoPI Act

Xperien, a South African IT asset disposition company, faced the challenge of ensuring certifiable and secure data erasure for its clients to comply with strict regulations like the PoPI Act and GDPR. Manually wiping vast amounts of hardware was inefficient and risky, and their clients required a fully traceable solution that could work both on-site and off-site while mitigating the risk of costly data breaches. To solve this, they turned to their channel partner, Blancco, and its Erasure-as-a-Service offering.

By implementing Blancco's solution, Xperien gained the ability to provide a tamper-proof audit trail and certification for all data erasures. This ensured compliance with key data security standards and gave their clients' end-customers peace of mind. The results included a strengthened bottom line for both Xperien and its customers by saving on manpower and hardware costs through asset repurposing, while also significantly reducing harmful e-waste.
