RndShred 0.1.0


RndShred application will create a block of randomized data and writes this block of data over your entire file more>>
RndShred application will create a block of randomized data and writes this block of data over your entire file RndShred application will create a block of randomized data and writes this block of data over your entire file.
Each pass this block of data is re-randomized to prevent a data recover service from finding ghost versions of your data remaining after deleting a file by just using 1 pass.
Running 3 passes if good for simple usage , but 7+ passes is recommended to
prevent any possible way of recovering the data by testing depths of the write
impressions. There are many articles on the Internet describing how you can
recover data from a disk, even though the file has been physically overwritten
with new data. (Article in PcMagazine - October 1, 2003 - "All Is Not Lost")
RndSred can auto-rename your file to a random filename using the same # of
characters as the original. This will help to prevent someone from knowing
the name of the file.
Check the auto-delete box to delete the file once RndShred is finished.
Default is 8 passes for heavy-duty shredding. 3 Passes is a low setting, and
anything over 8 passes is probably overkill. Yet this depends on your drive
and media type. RndShred is assuming you are shredding files on a hard drive.
You should read up on the media you are trying to shred files on to determine
the best possible # of passes to render your information unrecoverable.

File Shredder 2

File Shredder 2


Completely delete files from your computer. more>>

File Shredder 2 is an effective program which is designed to securely shred files and folders on computer.

Files deleted with File Shredder can not be retrieved back. File Shredder supports multiple shredding algorithms up to 7 passes, US government compliant DoD 5220-22.M, Guttman method, shell integration on right click in Windows, Disk Wiper to shred unused free space.

With File Shredder you can remove files from your hard drive without fear they could be recovered. There are quite a few software tools today for retrieval of deleted files under Windows OS. Those tools, often referred to as "file recovery" software, are taking advantage of shortcoming of WIndows "delete" command that all are used regularly to delete files. Actually, the "delete" operation in Windows only removes bits of information from files so they appear deleted in OS. It is easy to retrieve those files using aforementioned specialized file recovery software.

Major Features:

  1. Add File(s) - Click to add files ready to be shredded. A file picker will appear. Select one or more files and press open. The files will appear in main pane. You can add as manu files as you want. Note that adding the files into shredding queue does not delete them and you can remove the files from queue latter
  2. Add Folder(s) - Click to add folders ready to be shredded. A folder picker will appear. Select a folder and press open. The folder will appear in main pane. You can add as manu folders as you want but you have to add them one by one. The whole folder structure is added including files and subfolders.
  3. Remove Selected - Click to remove a file(s) or folder(s) from the shredding queue. Don't confuse this option with Shred Files Now, this option only removes files that are intended for shredding from the queue and no changes are made to the actual files or folders on hard drive.
  4. Remove All - Click to remove all file(s) or folder(s) from the shredding queue. This option does the same as Remove Selected but it will clean the complete queue. No changes to files and folders on hard drive will occur.
  5. Shred Free Disk Space - This option will shred unused or free disk space across the whole disk volume. For instance, this option is very useful if you haven't shred your unwanted files regularly but instead you used regular windows delete command and now you want your previously deleted files unretrievable. Those files now can not be shredded by picking them since they are already deleted. This option will enforce shredding of everything you have deleted once using the regular delete command, whether it was yesterday or months ago.
  6. Shred Free Disk Space - After you picked the files ready to be shredded click on this button to execute permanent removal of files. Warning: this option can not be undone, make sure you haven't picked non intended files accidentally.

Actually, the "delete" operation in Windows only removes bits of information from files so they appear deleted in OS. It is easy to retrieve those files using aforementioned specialized file recovery software.
In order to remove, or shred files permanently from your system you have to use a program that is capable of rewriting the files with random series of binary data multiple times. This process is often called shredding. That way, the actual content of the file has been overwritten and the possibilities to recover such a shredded file are mostly theoretical.
File Shredder has been developed as fast, safe and reliable tool to shred company files. The author of this program released it free under GNU licence and you are welcome to download File Shredder and use it without any restrictions. File Shredder is simple but powerful program that surpasses manu commercial file shredders out there. The Author believes that such a utility should be available to anyone for free and that permanent and safe removal of confidential documents is a matter of basic right to privacy.
In File Shredder you can choose between 5 different shredding algorithms, each one gradually stronger than the previous one. It also has integrated Disk Wiper which uses shredding algorithm to wipe unused disk space.

Simple File Shredder 3.2

Simple File Shredder 3.2


Securely delete your private files more>> Simple File Shredder is a utility that securely deletes your files so they cant be restored using recovery software.
SFS ensures your privacy by:
-Scrambling the file name
-Over-writing the file up to 25 times with random bytes
-Change the file date/time to a random date/time value
-Verify the file has been completely shredded before deleting it
A good use for Simple File Shredder would be to securely delete electronic financial statements, private e-mail, porn, etc.
Why do you need Simple File Shredder?
When you delete a file using the conventional Windows Delete method, the file is not destroyed. Windows simply acknowledges the file is no longer needed and considers it free space. The file will exist in a recoverable state until its over-written with other data. When you use Simple File Shredder to delete (shred) a file, it gives the file a meaningless name and ?e-writes?the file with random data. If the file was ever restored using recovery software, it would be worthless.
