Case Study: Sacombank streamlines PCI DSS compliance with Blancco data erasure solutions

Sacombank Streamlines PCI DSS Compliance Across Drives, Data Centers and ATMs

Sacombank, a large bank in Vietnam, faced the challenge of meeting strict data protection regulations like PCI DSS and State Bank of Vietnam Circular 18. Their previous method of physically destroying storage media was costly, inefficient, and lacked centralized reporting for audits. They needed a streamlined, verifiable solution to securely erase data across a wide range of devices, from laptops to the loose hard drives extracted from their ATMs.

The bank implemented a suite of Blancco secure erasure solutions, including Blancco Drive Eraser and a Blancco 8-Bay Drive Eraser appliance for bulk ATM drive erasure. This provided a unified, centralized process to erase data from all IT assets and generate tamper-proof certification reports. As a result, Blancco enabled Sacombank to achieve full regulatory compliance, reduce costs associated with physical destruction, and provide verifiable proof of data sanitization for auditors.
