Why open matters for compliance
A closed-source tool asks your security team to trust a black box. tScrub is open and inspectable — your team can read, audit, and pin it to a version. For regulated buyers, that transparency is the difference between "we wiped it" and "here is exactly what ran, and here is the proof."
Why teams switch
No vendor lock-in
You're not tied to a proprietary appliance or a per-licence platform. tScrub runs on hardware you already own.
Transparent pricing
Tiered pricing for signed reports, support, and fleet features — no enterprise quote required to get started.
