Prevent Dangerous Information Leaks with Computer Disposals or Returns
April 14, 2006 - EAST Technologies has released East-Tec DisposeSecure 2006 Enterprise, a powerful software application that completely and securely removes all data from hard drives or disk partitions before return of leased assets or computer disposal.
Companies resell or donate outdated computers, reassign them to different departments and personnel, or remove them from operation when they upgrade hardware or migrate to newer operating systems. Private users resell or give away their obsolete systems after upgrading to newer and faster computers. But nobody wants to give away the entire history and data from that old computer, although this is exactly what happens if you don\'t take extra precautions.
Deleting files, formatting the hard disk or even using the FDISK utility will not destroy data, it will only prevent the operating system and normal software from accessing it. This is not enough to stop even a simple recovery utility to retrieve valuable corporate trade secrets, business plans, personal files, confidential letters, or traces of Internet or newsgroup activity.
Running East-Tec DisposeSecure 2006 Enterprise on a hard disk before giving it away will help avoid the risks of sharing sensitive information with people that will have access to that computer in the future. East-Tec DisposeSecure 2006 removes all traces of software and data from the computer hard disk, by overwriting and destroying every sector and every bit of information. Data is removed according with U.S. Department of Defense standards, but the user can also use custom security levels, including the maximum security Gutmann standard.
East-Tec DisposeSecure 2006 Enterprise is operating system independent and supports any version of Windows (XP Home/XP Pro/2003 Server/2000/NT/Me/98/95/3.1), Linux (any distribution), FreeBSD, Solaris, SCO UNIX, UNIXWARE, OS/2, BeOS, etc. Prices start from $199.95(US), and the product may be purchased securely online at www.east-tec.com. Site licenses are also available for corporate/government users. You can download a free 15-day trial version from the same Internet address.
