Blancco awarded Cloud Security Product of the Year

Blancco, the global leader in data erasure and computer reuse solutions, has received the Cloud Security Product of the Year Award as part of Angel Business Communications’ 2014 Storage, Virtualization, Cloud (SVC) Awards. The company received the award for its integrated cloud erasure solutions on November 27 at London’s Montcalm Hotel.

“Winning this award is a fantastic achievement and demonstrates the growing significance of the role that secure data erasure plays in the cloud computing arena,” said Ben Jones, Business Development Manager for Blancco UK. “It was a very competitive category populated by some of the industry’s most established players, which makes our award even more meaningful.”

The annual SVC Awards recognize users, manufacturers and suppliers operating in the cloud, virtualization and storage sectors. Blancco was one of 10 finalists in the Cloud Security Product of the Year category, and its winning status was determined by the general public, including Blancco customers and the readership of Angel’s wide range of print and online publications for data center professionals.

“This year, we had a significant increase in the overall number of nominations, as well as the total votes cast,” said Jason Holloway, Director of IT Publishing at Angel Business Communications. “All finalists did well in making the shortlist, but Blancco was the clear winner in its category of Cloud Security Product of the Year.”
