A Global Entertainment Industry Leader
Ensuring Secure, High-Speed Data Destruction for a Global Gaming & Betting Leader
Switching to Data Safe Solutions completely changed how we handle IT asset disposal. Previously, our IT staff had to manually remove and physically destroy data-bearing devices, which was time-consuming and eliminated any asset resale value. Their on-site vaporisation process erased data securely in seconds—without requiring manual intervention—allowing us to maintain compliance while recovering value from our IT assets. This is the future of secure data destruction in the gaming industry
The Challenge
This entertainment industry leader manages vast amounts of sensitive customer and operational data across its global infrastructure. Their previous standard operating procedures (SOPs) for IT asset disposal were inefficient and costly:
The Solution
To modernize its IT asset disposal strategy, the company partnered with Data Safe Solutions Ltd. Our On-Site Data Vaporisation Service was deployed to:
-
Manual Data Removal - IT staff were required to physically remove each data-bearing component (e.g., hard drives, SSDs) from redundant equipment.
-
On-Site Physical Destruction - Once removed, these components were physically destroyed on-site to ensure data security
-
Operational Impact - Each removal process took over 30 minutes per device, consuming valuable IT staff time
-
Loss of IT Asset Value - Physically destroying data-bearing components rendered entire devices worthless, eliminating potential resale value
This global leader needed a better solution—one that would eliminate manual labor, maintain absolute data security, and maximize financial recovery from IT assets
-
Eliminate manual handling – No more physical removal of data storage devices by IT staff
-
Securely process entire IT assets – Using our Smart Wipe Engine, data was erased in seconds, not minutes, while the devices remained intact
-
Ensure 100% compliance – Instant, verifiable proof of destruction meeting GDPR, financial regulations, and internal security standards
-
Maximize IT asset value – After secure data destruction, the company retained control over device resale, rather than writing off valuable equipment
