Proposed merger and content updates

Hello editors, per my user page, I work for Blancco Technology Group and am declaring this conflict of interest rather than trying to directly edit the pages.

Proposed merge with Blancco Ltd.

I propose merging Blancco Ltd. into this article, as both pages describe the same company under different names.

"Blancco Ltd." covers the earlier history (founded in Finland in 1997, early products, DBAN acquisition, etc.), while this page covers the later corporate structure and ownership as Blancco Technology Group.

Rather than maintain two overlapping articles, I suggest merging the older page here and consolidating the history, business, and leadership details.

I have prepared a neutral draft that combines both articles and updates the content to reflect current ownership (Francisco Partners), headquarters (Woburn, Massachusetts), and current CEO (Lou DiFruscio). The draft is here: User:Fairweather12/sandbox - Wikipedia

Comments and improvements are welcome.

Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies.

Hi, I have a declared conflict of interest with this topic. Since the merge of Blancco Ltd. into Blancco Technology Group, the article text no longer reflects the neutral, referenced draft that had previously been proposed here: User:Fairweather12/sandbox - Wikipedia. The content of the new page (e.g., stating that Blancco is a British company) is also not accurate.

I would appreciate it if an uninvolved editor could review that sandbox draft and update the article accordingly. There were no objections or negative feedback on the draft over the past several weeks.

Thank you! ~~~~ Fairweather12 (talk) 10:35, 13 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
