Secure File Deleter allows you to completely and securely delete selected files from your system.

As you know, when you delete a file or folder it's still possible to recover it, even when you have placed it in the recycle bin and emptied it. Secure File Deleter is designed specifically to prevent recovery of those deleted items by replacing the contents with random data or via military grade cryptography algorithms. You have the choice of a large amount security algorithms for data destruction. The program can write a combination of ones and zeroes onto each sector of your hard drive, or use various other characters rendering the target data useless.

Secure File Deleter uses the following cryptographic security algorithms for file deletion and shredding - DOD_5220.22_M, the Peter Gutman method, GOST_R_50739_95 which is widely used in different security systems in Russia, RCMP_TSSIT_OPS_II, the Schneier Method, German VSITR which is employed by Germany security systems as well as in other EU countries. It also uses the British standard HMG_Infosec_Standard_5, US Army AR380_19, US Air Force 5020, cryptographic pseudo-random number generator CPRNG, and random characters written to random places of the file.
