ArchiCrypt Shredder

Securely deleting files is not as easy as it appears at first. The means provided by most operating systems do not really remove the data, only a reference to the content is removed. It is simple to reconstruct this data with the appropriate program.ArchiCrypt Shredder deletes sensitive data in such a way that it is impossible to reconstruct the data using software. (This has been tested and proven in the laboratories of the data rescue specialist, Ontrack). The file deletion function can be connected to the Windows Explorer's context menu if needed. Special functions like cleaning the free space and cluster tips (fragments that cannot be deleted at the end of a file and which can contain sensitive information), monitoring the online connection and automatically removing online traces can be accessed centrally using ArchiCrypt Shredder's user interface. Using the scheduler, specific deletion tasks can be scheduled and carried out at a later time. An extremely flexible plug-in system expands the shredder to include a range of functions, which, for example, in addition to deleting the traces of Window Media Player, RealOne Player, Kazaa, eDonkey, eMule, WinZip, WinRAR, Outlook Express, etc., can also handle saving operations. Using special plug-ins, you can, for example, even back-up your Outlook Express or Thunderbird mail boxes, save and restore Windows XP product activation and deactivate numerous 'Phone Home' functions - and on and on and on... The shredder provides a very special feature in terms of information about your usage patterns. The operating system secretly collects data about programs and files and encrypts and hides this information on your system. The shredder is not only able to delete this data but also decrypt it. Anyone who wants to clean entire partitions or hard drives will find a fantastic solution, both with ArchiCrypt Shredder as well as with DBAN, which is integrated. ArchiCrypt Shredder provides numerous additional functions. While normal deletion programs and trace destroyers only use unsecure operating system methods, at best, to remove blocked files and clean swap files, ArchiCrypt Shredder uses its own secure method and deletes data even before the operating system starts up.The absolute highlight, however, is the 'Secure D Zone' feature - Secure D Zones are locations / spaces that are monitored by the shredder. At every unsecure deletion (i.e. using the operating system), the shredder substitutes the action with its own secure deletion.ArchiCrypt Shredder Main Features:Supports Internet Explorer, Opera, Netscape, T-Online, Firefox Flexible plug-in system Removes traces from applications: for example, recently opened documents, recently started programs or connected computers, temporary files, WinRAR, WinZIP, deleted Outlook Express Emails, deleted Thunderbird Emails, Windows MediaPlayer, RealOne Player, eDonkey, Kazaa, eMule and many more.
