How to get rid of Computer Files and delete them?
The common problem with sensitive data is that deleted files are not really deleted and so may be recovered by interested parties. Most file systems only remove the link to data (see undelete above). But even overwriting the disk with something else or formatting it does not guarantee that the sensitive data is completely unrecoverable.
A common method used to counter data remanence is to overwrite the storage medium with new data. This is often called wiping or shredding a file or disk. Because such methods can often be implemented in software alone, and may be able to selectively target only part of a medium, it is a popular, low-cost option for some applications.
