How to erase data permanently from the hard drive?
Files emptied out of trash or recycle bin can easily be recovered using any data recovery software as deletion just removes the master file index on the hard drive. But the 1s and 0s of the deleted files still lies on the hard drive. The only way to permanently erase 1s and 0s of sensitive files index is to overwrite the disk space with new/junk data.
So as to securely erase data we need to follow certain patterns or standards for disk sanitization. The patterns used for overwriting effectively remove magnetic remnants from the hard drive.
Remo Data Sanitizer is one such powerful Disk Eraser Utility designed to eliminate data file(s) in different directories with a stroke of a key shredding sensitive data beyond recovery.
This utility overwrites your entire physical drive sector-by-sector to ensure safety from data recovery software’s. This software is featured with complicated scan algorithms that exceed those standards prescribed by the US Department of Defense and the US Navy.
The utility provides nine sanitizing methods and they are classified into different levels for erasing the data which are based on the security levels.
Below mentioned sanitizing methods offer “low” security levels
