Why Data Erasure Matters: Preventing Data Breaches (Beginners Guide)

Understanding proper data erasure is the first step in preventing costly data breaches. This guide covers the basics for IT professionals new to data sanitization.

The Risk of Incomplete Erasure

Simply deleting files or performing a factory reset does not remove data permanently. Sensitive information can often be recovered using specialized tools.

Professional Data Erasure

Enterprise solutions like MASAMUNE Erasure use industry-standard overwrite methods to ensure data cannot be recovered, providing certificates as proof of proper sanitization.

Compliance Requirements

Many industries require documented proof of data destruction. MASAMUNE provides NIST 800-88 compliant erasure with cloud-based certificate management.
