Deleting sensitive information does not remove it from a hard drive completely. Deleting a file removes the file's directory entry but the data remains on the disk. Most of those deleted and quick formatted files can still be found and your companies sensitive data can still be recovered from it.
Deleting sensitive information does not remove it from a hard drive completely. Deleting a file removes the file's directory entry but the data remains on the disk. Are you selling or junking a hard disk and think it is secure because you've deleted sensitive information or formatted it? Not likely. Most of those deleted and quick formatted files can still be found and your companies sensitive data can still be recovered from it.
Data Shield will securely eliminate all of your sensitive data and delete it so it "cannot" be recovered. Data Shield will work on individual files, directories, directory trees and even a complete partition or hard disk.
Data Shield has options to do a standard or secure delete on:
Data Shield will automatically find any standard installation of Netscape 2.02, 4.04, 4.61 or 6.0 as well as Mozilla and offer to clean any part of it according to the versions need.
If you have sensitive data on a drive (financial records or client lists for example) never give away or sell the drive without cleaning it thoroughly.
Data Shield is only available as part of the PillarSoft Suite and is not available for separate download. Please see the PillarSoft Suite webpage for more information.
