The tracking of removable or portable media, which contains sensitive, confidential, personal and identifiable data, has become critical due to the amount of information contained in any such media. Loss and theft, through careless handling, ranks high as the primary means by which sensitive data is inadvertently disclosed to sources of ill will. In the case of portable media, any kind of information release can happen as any IT Asset containing storage hardware is taken off-line and retired without proper erasure. In some cases, attempted conventional means to overwrite data on drives not conducted by credible and certified means can lead to improper overwrite of all sectors on the drive.
In our high-tech world, data security is a concern to all organizations. The number one concern of CIO’s is the challenge in making security everyone’s business.

Last month, a seminar was held locally with many of the information security professionals in our area and an expert spoke of the necessity of having the ISO 27001 certification. After the formal presentation, this person was answering several pointed questions. One of those queries was about using vendors who also have the ISO 27001 certification and the specialist stated the cost of using a company that did not also have the security standard was going to be sizable. The organization was going to have to allocate resources to implement the same ISO controls at the vendor’s location that they were using at their site to meet their security plan.
