FileAssurity OpenPGP and Secure File Deletion
Whether you want to securely remove some files, a folder, or the entire contents of your hard disk then FileAssurity's secure file deletion ensures your data cannot be recovered even by specialist recovery tools.
Windows File Deletion
When you delete files in Windows by moving them into the Windows Recycle Bin all the data remains on your hard disk. When you delete files from the Recycle bin then you are still not deleting your data! All that is removed is an entry in a directory telling the file system where your data is stored. Utilities like Norton's Disk Doctor can easily be used to undelete and view your files.
FileAssurity's Secure File DeletionFileAssurity's secure delete facility ensures your files, folders and data are securely deleted in one easy step beyond the US Government DOD 5220.22-M standard. Files are securely wiped (written over multiple times) and then deleted, ensuring your data is removed without the possibility of software or hardware-based data recovery. FileAssurity performs a write and wipe cycle 15 times for each file compared to the 3-9 times specified by the US Government DOD 5220.22-M standard.
In addition, secure delete carries out a number of extra processes in order to defeat programs manipulating the NTFS file system as a means of file recovery (for example, File Scavenger). Your files are securely deleted beyond recovery.
