In today’s data-driven world, the importance of protecting sensitive information cannot be overstated. Businesses still rely on tape media to securely store vast quantities of critical data. However, as tapes near the end of their lifespan, organisations are faced with a growing challenge: how to securely dispose of this outdated media while ensuring environmental responsibility. This is where Insurgo excels, offering not only industry-leading tape erasure and restoration services but also a suite of eco-friendly, security-focused solutions for businesses looking to protect both their data and the planet.
The secure erasure of data is a top priority for businesses, and Insurgo addresses this need with its Insurgo Technology. This innovative system uses a patented process that guarantees complete data destruction on every tape, leaving no room for data recovery. While many companies offer data erasing services, Insurgo goes beyond the norm, offering Restore Certified Tape Media. After erasing the data, Insurgo restores the tapes, making them as good as new. Through re-initialisation and servicing, old tapes can be put back into use, offering businesses a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable alternative to purchasing new tapes.
This process ensures that organisations don’t have to choose between security and sustainability. Instead of sending tapes to landfills, Insurgo gives them a second life, reducing waste and helping businesses cut costs, while still maintaining the highest security standards.
Often, businesses are unaware of what data is stored on old tapes, especially when using legacy formats that may no longer be supported. Insurgo offers tape auditing services, helping companies assess what data is present before they initiate the data destruction process. This is especially important for businesses that are unsure about what’s stored on obsolete or unlabelled tapes.
Through comprehensive audits, Insurgo helps businesses identify and properly address any data that may still be on old media. This proactive approach ensures that all sensitive information is securely erased and that no data is left unaddressed. Whether it's customer data, financial records, or intellectual property, knowing what’s stored on your tapes is an essential step in reducing risk and ensuring compliance with data protection regulations.
Sustainability is now a key focus for businesses worldwide, with more organisations looking for eco-friendly solutions to reduce their carbon footprint. Traditional methods of tape disposal, like shredding, are not only time-consuming but also contribute significantly to CO2 emissions. Insurgo’s method, on the other hand, is 51% more efficient in reducing CO2 output compared to shredding.
Their eco-friendly disposal process ensures that every component of your tape media is recycled in a responsible manner. With the growing pressure on businesses to adopt green practices, Insurgo’s commitment to sustainability is something that aligns perfectly with the modern business landscape. From erasing data to recycling tape components, Insurgo helps organisations meet their sustainability goals without compromising on security.
Security doesn’t end with data erasure; it also includes keeping track of where your tapes are at all times. That’s why Insurgo’s Investigo® software is a game-changer. This real-time tracking system provides a full chain of custody, meaning businesses can trace the movement of their tapes from the moment they enter the process to the final destruction and recycling stages.
Having complete visibility over this process is essential for businesses handling sensitive data. Investigo® eliminates the need for paper-based records and spreadsheets, which can be prone to human error. By digitally recording every step, from intake to final disposal, Insurgo offers organisations peace of mind, ensuring that all their tape media is handled securely and transparently. This level of oversight is particularly crucial for businesses in highly regulated industries, where maintaining data integrity is non-negotiable.
Insurgo’s services are not just about meeting today’s security and sustainability needs—they’re about preparing businesses for the future.
