“Legacy data sanitization tools can’t keep up with modern IT. Learn why the industry is broken—and how Overty fixes outdated, unscalable data erasure solutions.”
The data sanitization industry is struggling to keep pace with modern IT environments.
While organizations face growing regulatory pressure, distributed workforces, and increasing volumes of sensitive data, many data sanitization and data erasure solutions still operate as if IT teams were centralized and devices never left the office.
The result?
Outdated tools, limited visibility, compliance gaps, and operational inefficiencies.
This is the problem Overty was built to solve.
Most data sanitization software on the market today was designed for a very different reality. Traditional tools assume:
In today’s environment—where organizations manage thousands of laptops, servers, and storage devices across remote and hybrid teams, these assumptions no longer hold.
As companies scale, legacy data wiping tools become:
Data sanitization is not just a technical task—it’s a compliance requirement.
Regulations and standards such as NIST 800-88, GDPR, HIPAA, and ISO demand clear, verifiable proof that data has been properly sanitized.
However, many data erasure solutions still rely on:
When auditors or security teams ask for proof of data sanitization, organizations often struggle to produce real-time, trustworthy documentation. Without centralized reporting and tamper-resistant records, even properly erased devices can become a liability.
Remote and hybrid work permanently changed how organizations manage devices and data.
Employees now:
Yet many data sanitization tools still depend on:
This mismatch forces IT teams to rely on spreadsheets, emails, and custom workflows—introducing risk and inefficiency.
Secure data sanitization must work anywhere devices are, not just in the office.
Overty was created to modernize data sanitization from the ground up.
Instead of treating data erasure as a one-time task, Overty delivers a cloud-native data sanitization platform or On-Premise designed for today’s IT environments.
Overty enables organizations to:
By removing manual steps and centralizing visibility, Overty reduces risk while increasing operational efficiency.
Data sanitization now plays a critical role in:
Organizations can no longer afford to rely on outdated data wiping tools that were never built for scale, automation, or audit readiness.
“Overty exists to help companies transition from reactive, manual data erasure to proactive, verifiable, and scalable data sanitization”.
The data sanitization industry isn’t broken because security isn’t important.
It’s broken because the tools haven’t evolved.
Overty represents a new standard—one designed for modern IT operations, remote work, and compliance-driven environments.
This is why we built Overty.
