Case Study – Healthcare

Customer problem

A private network of medical facilities in Italy stores patient data on storage arrays. Due to the purchase of newer generation devices, old data carriers containing sensitive information remained in the warehouse.

Action taken

Data migration to new media.

Purchase of a ProDevice ASM240 degausser.

Disposal of degaussed media.

Results

  • Periodic deletion of sensitive data in accordance with international regulations such as GDPR.

  • Freeing up space in the warehouse – after demagnetization the carriers can be sent for recycling.

  • Possibility of regular deletion of data from magnetic carriers on one’s own and the creation of reports for internal documentation using the mobile application.
