Business Need
Iron Mountain reached out to BitRaser with the following requirements:
- Wiping M2 & newer MacBook: The previous wiping tool was inadequate for Newer Mac devices with Apple silicon chips, particularly Mac with M3, M2 chips. They needed a versatile wiping tool capable of handling all device types, especially newer MacBook units with M3, M2 and M1 chips.
- Achieve R2 & ISO 27001 Compliance: Iron Mountain required a secure data wiping solution to help them achieve compliance with ISO 27001 & R2v3 certification.
Solution: Iron Mountain's ITAD division wipes a significant number of Mac devices monthly, in addition to laptops and desktops. They specifically opted for BitRaser Drive Eraser for Mac to ensure thorough data erasure across all Mac devices. While their previous tool was effective for Windows devices, it lacked the necessary efficacy for New Mac models, necessitating the transition to BitRaser.
