This was more than helpful. Thank you all very much, and I'm sure we've all found out about quite a few we didn't know about before. thanks, Kinnell On 4/26/05, nee cee <nc () phat co nz> wrote:
Kinnell looks as though a few progs have been suggested already. I will not add to the list except to say that you will need to also consider the NOS or OS that the file is sitting on and take that into consideration when deleting as well. Removing from Alternate Data streams comes to mind and also purging the files if on Netware. nc -----Original Message----- From: Kinnell [mailto:kinnell.t () gmail com] Sent: Monday, April 25, 2005 2:06 PM To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: HD memory wiper/shredder Hey all. I recently had a friend ask me if I knew of any real good file shredders/wipers. He wants to be able to securely shred a file used for an encryption key after it is no longer needed at that location. I couldn't think of any off of the top of my head but I figured this list would be a great place to start. So does anyone know of a good shredder to use for this purpose? Freeware would be preferred. thanks, Kinnell ________________________________ ------ Disclaimer: phat.co.nz accepts no responsibility for the actions of it's members.
