Blancco [http://www.blancco.com ], the global leader in data erasure and computer
reuse solutions, is exhibiting at InfoSecurity Russia 2012
[http://eng.infosecurityrussia.ru ], Russia's No. 1 IT and security event. Blancco will
provide a keynote speech and serve as an exhibitor (stand D1-3), promoting the importance
of data erasure for retired hardware, September 26-28, 2012, at the Crocus Expo, Hall 2,
Moscow. Blancco's emphasis at this event echoes growing concerns about data security
within Russia.
"Many Russian corporations and government organizations are vulnerable to costly data
breaches because they have no data erasure policy within their overall IT security
strategy," said Kim Vaisanen, CEO and Co-Founder of Blancco. "Our new Moscow branch
operations opened largely because of requests from our international clients operating in
Russia. Blancco recognizes the need to drive education about data erasure as an IT best
practice and to build awareness of its role in regulatory requirements within this
region."
After announcing Russian expansion plans this June, Blancco eagerly showcases its
secure erasure solutions at stand D1-3. These customizable, automated solutions support
centrally managed erasure processes, saving organizations time and money while offering
detailed erasure reports for regulatory purposes. Blancco software also holds the
internationally recognized Common Criteria
[http://campaign.blancco.com/cc-certified-product ] certification, as verified by
third-party testing.
A presentation from Blancco's Chief Operating Officer Janne Vara
[http://eng.infosecurityrussia.ru/2012/Speakers/vara ] addresses the essential role of data
erasure in corporate data security strategy on 26 September from 12:50-13:10 in the
