Michael Waksman, CEO, Jetico, explains: “Remotely wiping SAN storage arrays without the need to physically access or disassemble them first will add valuable convenience and efficiency for wiping multiple devices simultaneously.“

EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) booting is a standard for most computers manufactured in the past 5 years. Some modern hardware vendors have decided not to include an older legacy support in their producs. Previous compatibility with EFI now advances further with EFI PXE boot, enabling the capability to wipe EFI computers remotely.

Approved by the U.S. Department of Defense for sanitization of magnetic, SSD and hybrid storage devices, BCWipe Total WipeOut achieves security compliance with enhanced reporting. Admins can view, filter and export wiping history to keep track of every operation performed on any device. In version 4, HDD wiping reports are customizable for documenting only the most important information. Users can create, save and print wiping reports in one of five popular formats as certificate of proof for auditing.

The company’s HDD wiping software UI has been redesigned to make the process simpler and faster, featuring pre-set recommended settings to securely erase SSD, USB and HDD devices. The Enterprise Edition alo empowers users to remotely take control of every aspect of the data erasure process for more demanding whole disk wiping projects.

This version of BCWipe Total WipeOut improves support for hardware from NVMe SSD wiping in modern laptops to large-capacity HDD wiping in server systems including support for Sparc and Itanium architecture.

“New standards, protocols and technologies are emerging every month,” tells Waksman. “Jetico is constantly updating our technology for compatibility with recent innovations, ensuring reliable HDD erasure for all our customers.“
