Blancco transforms IT asset lifecycle management and data erasure with industry-first agentic platform. Blancco Blue leverages data from 500M erasures to simplify device processing for ITADs and enterprises through AI-assisted workflows, reporting and support BOSTON - Oct. 14, 2026 - Blancco Technology Group, the industry standard in data erasure and mobile lifecycle solutions, today announced Blancco Blue, the first agentic platform for IT asset lifecycle management and data erasure. The platform leverages data from over 500 million certified Blancco erasures accumulated over three decades to empower enterprises, IT asset disposition (ITAD) providers and mobile device processors to accelerate asset processing and focus on value recovery. Blancco Blue's dedicated AI assistant, Ask Blue, turns Blancco's data erasure history into intelligence that teams can act on directly. Customers can also create and automate workflows with a quick chat conversation, replacing what traditionally required specialist setup and configuration. Ask Blue also connects securely to AI tools teams already use, like Claude, ChatGPT and Copilot, through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This allows users to ask questions from within their own AI tools to build dashboards, query their audit history and pull reports from multiple sources across their operations. That openness matters in a market shaped by data privacy rules, sustainability pressures and supply constraints. Gartner forecasts 2026 spending on data center systems will rise 62.5% to $822 billion, with device spending up 9.8% to $868 billion. As that hardware ages out, Blancco Blue helps ITADs and in-house IT asset management teams automate and accelerate secure and compliant processing. "Blancco Blue builds on three decades of expertise in data sanitization and device diagnostics to help customers make better decisions, operate more efficiently and mitigate risk," said Blancco CEO Lou DiFruscio. "It puts actionable insights from our data and knowledge base at their fingertips, alongside the AI and asset management tools they already use. That means less manual work and less time piecing together reports - ultimately giving customers the information they need to make confident decisions faster. This launch is just the start of what we can bring to secure asset disposition and hardware reuse." Blancco Blue also serves as the management gateway for the company's entire slate of certified data erasure and diagnostics products for mobile devices, laptops, Chromebooks, desktop PCs, Apple wearables, and HDD, SSD and NVMe storage devices. Trusted by thousands of customers worldwide, these tools are now available as part of the company's rebranded solutions suite, Blancco Certify. Blancco Certify's data erasure software supports 25+ data sanitization standards and guidelines, enabling organizations to permanently remove data from used IT hardware in compliance with leading industry frameworks and regulatory requirements. Tamper-proof and digitally signed certificates of erasure provide a documented chain of custody and audit-ready proof of compliance. The company's data erasure capabilities have been tested, certified, approved and recommended by more than 13 governing bodies and leading organizations around the world, including Common Criteria, ADISA and NATO, and include customer-designed, automated workflows to streamline operations. "Blancco Blue is where our platform starts working for our customers, not the other way around," said Blancco Chief Product and Technology Officer Tzvika Shahaf. "Customers can describe the outcome they want in plain English, and Ask Blue delivers the answer or builds the workflow to get there. That means faster time to value, and teams spend their time acting on insights instead of assembling them. By connecting our data and knowledge base to the AI and asset management tools customers already use, we're shortening the path from question to action to proof, and laying the foundation for what we build next." About blancco. Blancco provides certified, defensible data erasure and diagnostics software for the AI era. The company enables thousands of organizations, including global enterprises, IT asset disposition (ITAD) providers, and mobile device processors and resellers, to extract greater value from IT assets while mitigating data privacy, security and compliance risk. Blancco's erasure and circular value platform serves every asset, from endpoints and mobile devices to data center infrastructure. Customers can create and automate workflows, more quickly recover and remarket those assets, and query their data for insights. By making data unrecoverable while the device lives on, Blancco helps organizations reuse rather than destroy IT assets, extending hardware life and supporting sustainability and ESG goals with certified, auditable proof. With 30 years of experience, 500 million erasures and zero reported breaches, Blancco has earned 13+ certifications, recommendations and approvals from governing bodies and leading industry organizations.

Blancco Leaders to speak at Mobile Disrupt on secondary market Growth and AI driven margins. * 3 hrs ago Boston, MASSACHUSETTS, July 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Leaders from Blancco Technology Group, the industry standard in data erasure and mobile lifecycle solutions, will participate in two industry panels at Mobile Disrupt, taking place July 7-8, 2026, at Fontainebleau Miami Beach in Miami Beach, Florida. During the opening session on Tuesday, July 7, at 8:30 a.m. ET, Blancco Chief Revenue Officer Tom Salah will join Executive Director Darrell Fleming-Kendall of Global ITAD Alliance, Co-Founder & CMO/CSO Kevin Dillon of ERI (a Blancco ITAD partner) and Founder & Chief Circularity Officer Rich Bulger of All Things Circular for the discussion, "Building a Bigger Pie: Collaboration as the Growth Engine of the Secondary Marketplace." Addressing the needs of mobile device buyers, sellers, processors, manufacturers, service providers and policymakers, panelists will share insights on how working together can increase secondary-market demand, improve trust, strengthen the workforce pipeline and create more opportunity across the mobile device ecosystem. The discussion will cover how industry collaboration can help recover more value from returns, take-backs, excess inventory, repairable goods, reusable parts and recyclable materials that too often get trapped or destroyed. Attendees will also learn how they can leverage technology and AI to connect, increase efficiency, reduce friction and solve real operational problems. Drawing on his work in the mobile and ITAD reverse logistics industry, Blancco National Account Manager George Abdelmalak will moderate a second panel, "Unlocking Margin through AI," at 11 a.m. ET that same day. The discussion will focus on overcoming value loss across the mobile device resale process. Panelists will explore the connection between premium margins, trust and the strong data intelligence chain needed at each stage of secondary-market preparation. Speakers include Blancco SVP of Product Strategy Tzvika Shahaf alongside CEO Josh Beasley of Early Upgrade (a Blancco customer) and Chris Cornell, Senior Manager, Strategy & Operations, U.S. Refurbished/Hard Goods at eBay (a Blancco partner). With perspectives spanning grading, processing and marketplace performance, panelists will walk through a diagnostic model of the journey from intake to resale, identifying five moments when intelligence often breaks down and causes margin leaks. Attendees will leave with a practical framework for assessing whether gaps in their intelligence chain are limiting value recovery. "Mobile Disrupt brings together the people and companies shaping the next chapter of the secondary mobile market," Shahaf said. "That kind of collaboration matters because no single company can improve reuse outcomes, trust and value recovery alone. Blancco's investment in mobile is grounded in those conversations: listening closely to customers and partners, contributing to the industry's shared priorities, and building more connected ways to move devices from intake to reuse with greater speed, confidence and data-driven decision making." In addition to its panel participation, Blancco will showcase elements of its intelligence-driven mobile platform, highlighting capabilities designed to support mobile processors, marketplaces, refurbishers, retailers, carriers and ITADs managing used mobile devices. Live demonstrations in booths B1 and B2 will highlight tools that enable mobile industry teams to work faster, more consistently and with greater confidence, deriving more value from every device while meeting the privacy and trust standards that buyers and regulators increasingly demand.
