Case Study: Ashfords and Ruby Datum erase 900+ offline devices in 2 days with Blancco

Quickly & Securely Erasing Offline Assets for a Legal Services Provider

Ruby Datum, a UK-based data control and virtual data room consultant, worked with legal services provider Ashfords to address a significant data sanitization challenge. They needed to securely erase over 900 laptops, PCs, and servers from a major legal firm's administration to protect confidential client information and employee privacy for resale. To achieve this, they turned to the vendor Blancco for a solution.

Blancco provided its Drive Eraser and Blancco Toolkit solutions, which used HASP keys to efficiently erase 50-60 offline machines simultaneously. This allowed the team to complete the erasure of all 900+ assets in just two days, saving countless hours of work. The solution from Blancco ensured all data was securely sanitized, mitigating the risk of a costly data breach.
