Eraser is an advanced security tool (for Windows),
which allows you to completely remove sensitive data from your hard
drive by overwriting it several times with carefully selected
patterns. Works with Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP and DOS.
Eraser is FREE software and its source code is released under GNU
General Public License.
The patterns used for overwriting are based on Peter Gutmann's paper
"Secure Deletion of Data from Magnetic and Solid-State Memory" and
they are selected to effectively remove magnetic remnants from the
hard drive. |
