Mac Demonstrations To Help You Learn DriveStrike
Mac Remote Wipe
MacOS Remote Wipe is affordable, easy to setup and initiate.
To Remote Wipe your Mac, go to the Device page in DriveStrike.
- Click “Wipe” and you will be prompted to enter your credentials again to confirm the remote data erasure action.
- After you confirm the remote wipe action, DriveStrike issues a secure command that the Mac will execute.
- Once DriveStrike receives and executes the command the data on your Mac laptop will be securely erased and a firmware lock will be placed on it. You will not be able to boot up the Mac until you enter the firmware lock code.
Using remote wipe is a fast and effective way to erase private and confidential information from a Mac computer. DriveStrike is installed as a profile with administrative privileges providing DriveStrike with elevated access rights to critical components necessary to execute a remote wipe. When an authorized DriveStrike administrator initiates a Mac Remote Wipe using the online DriveStrike Command Center a secure wipe command is immediately ordered. As soon as the Apple push notification is issued the remote wipe command erases your sensitive data.
