What is data shredding? Data shredding or file erasing is a process by which digitally stored information can be broken down to it’s base components and in a sense descrambled into an unrecognizable format. This process is accomplished with software that must exceed the standards of DoD US. An example of such a program is the REMO file shredder. Since 1991, REMO has been the industry leader in the field of data recovery. That expertise in recovering lost file has now been reverse engineered to create the world’s most reliable and efficient data eraser.
The REMO file eraser allows both named files and unused space on a logical drive to be permanently dismantled in such a way as it can never be pieced together. This operation is essential for businesses dealing in medical records and financial data, as hardware upgrades place used computers on to the secondary markets. The REMO file shredder is available for purchase at remosoftware.com and like all of the quality REMO programs is available with a free demonstration download.
