Case Study: ITOCHU Techno-Solutions (CTC) secures LUN erasure and certified data protection with Blancco LUN Eraser

Secure Erasure of LUNs Prevents the Leak of Sensitive Information

ITOCHU Techno-Solutions (CTC) required a secure method to erase customer data from its Cloudage ElasticCUVIC cloud service to address client security concerns and prove compliance. Their challenge was to completely wipe data, specifically LUNs, on shared equipment without system interruption after a contract ended, moving beyond ineffective deletion methods that left data vulnerable.

The vendor, Blancco, provided its Blancco LUN Eraser solution to meet this need. The software enabled simultaneous and secure erasure of multiple LUNs in active environments, providing 100% certified, tamper-proof erasure reports. This solution increased trust among CTC's users, provided a verifiable audit trail, and successfully mitigated the risk of high-value data leaks.
