jv16 PowerTools 2009 - Disk Wiper

The Disk Wiper allows you to remove data from your hard drives permanently, without the posibility of later restoring the files. If you are security conscious, this tool is invaluable

The tool works in three operating modes

1. It can wipe only the free space of the hard drive
2. It can wipe all files and directory structures
3. It can wipe all data, free space, directory structures and files

The wiping works by overwriting the data many times before actually deleting it. The number of overwrites can be easily configured.

It's important to remember that a wiping tool must also destroy all the meta-data associated with the data you need to wipe. The Disk Wiper wipes out the following information

• Filenames
• Directory names
• File attributes
• All contents of the files and directories

Why there is no other alternative

• Can also wipe meta-data, a "little" tidbit that most of the competition conveniently forgets about
• Extreme degree of flexibility. Whether it's a directory, a disk drive or any combination in between, this tool does the job and does it well

Note: The Disk Wiper is designed to wipe large amounts of data at a time. You can wipe individual files with the File Tool.

That's fine, but how is your product different than the others?
You will gain a renewed sense of sense of security knowing that what is deleted stays that way. Your level of privacy will increase as the tool can remove sensitive data from your computer in a way it cannot ever be restored.
