Hello Guys

I'm working on a Secure deleted program
so you cannot recover it again
to protect your private stuff against anyone that you don't want them to see
even if you had deleted it.

Skull remover BETA will make it for sure nobody can restore your files again.

Well blusho; I hope

This BETA will not let you delete more then 10 files
do delete all the files / folders you need a License key.
But Tell me what you think

Here's a Screen Shot
hope you like this.

Is there any standard you go by when erasing the files?

It would be useful if it would overwrite the bytes with all zero's so if you can recover it the data will be null (and do this process multiple times , for extra security)
this is btw how Ccleaners function "Drive wipe" actually works (overwrite empty data with 0's)

You could make use of use magnetic wearing (in conventional drives) to recover data if it is just 0s. It would be more secure if you write random data instead.

Basically when a bit is written to a magnetic media it is read by the drive's firmware as an analogue value between 0 and 1 (e.g. 0.6). This value is rounded to become binary, but each write will leave a pattern in the new analogue value and if there is enough sample data the values may partially represent the original data. Wiping with random data is a way to reduce this effect.

but a magnetic drive would be an usb flash drive for example or what ?

Most hard drives in computers these days are magnetic, so are tapes.

Flash memory is different to magnetic media. When data in flash memory is overwritten (with any value) it is not recoverable.
