WipeDrive Mobile Reduces Risk of Data Breaches From Tablets and Smartphones With Diagnostic and Erasure Solution

AMERICAN FORK, Utah, July 19, 2019 (Newswire.com) - WipeDrive Mobile provides organizations with thorough diagnostics and data removal from mobile devices set for reuse or disposal. Businesses often dismiss data threats from mobile devices like smartphones and tablets or feel they are limited in scope, but improper decommissioning can pose an even bigger security risk, according to WhiteCanyon Software [http://www.whitecanyon.com ], the global leader in data erasure and mobile diagnostic solutions. Analysts estimate that more than 150 million mobile phones are now recycled each year. GDPR and other privacy regulations have required corporate security policies to address the removal of data from these mobile devices, but often a secure process that provides reporting is not implemented.

WipeDrive Mobile [https://www.whitecanyon.com/wipedrive-mobile] offers businesses, as well as the third-party ITAD (IT Asset Disposition) companies a comprehensive tool that can provide a diagnostic report on the functionality of a mobile device, as well as a NIST, HMG or DoD overwrite erasure. These reports are integrated into clients' ERP systems for instantaneous updates on the status of a device. The updates to this product come at a time when many businesses are developing or assessing their mobile device management policy.

"Managing mobile devices properly is an issue for every organization," said Paul Katzoff, CEO of WhiteCanyon Software. "WipeDrive Mobile provides a platform to not only process the devices with secure overwrite patterns but also discover the state of the device for resale or disposal purposes. WipeDrive Mobile has quickly become the mobile erasure standard in North America."
