Open Source File Shredders

Do you want to delete some top secret files? DON'T do that by only pressing DELETE, because the data would still be on your drive! Use Turbo Shredder and remove files by securely wiping them out. Requires JRE 7 to run properly.

LibSecRm (LIBrary for SECure ReMoval) is a set of replacements for these standard C functions which cause data removing from files. The data is first securely wiped on-the-fly, to protect the user's privacy, then the original functions are called. There is NO NEED to rebuild your software, because LibSecRm is a pre-loadable library, meaning you just need to RUN the software with LibSecRm loaded. LibSecRm is also a development library. The following wiping methods are supported: Gutmann-like, random, Schneier, DoD. See the project homepage https://libsecrm.sourceforge.io and the project Wiki in the menu above. To wipe data that was left on the drive by using "normal" delete operations, you can take a look at WipeFreeSpace (https://wipefreespace.sourceforge.io), which wipes the space used by files marked as deleted (and other things, too).

Overwrite the specified FILE(s) repeatedly, in order to make it harder for even very expensive hardware probing to recover the data. Written by Colin Plumb.

ShredBitz is a free and simple file shredder tool that can wipe selected files from any hard disk drive. ShredBitz is written in the java programming language and uses a custom written algorithm for shredding. ShredBitz is a very powerful tool.

Openshredder is os independent secure file deletion tool.It is very light weight and useful.It uses standard Zero and DoD algorithms.

This software is used to delete files securely in the Linux operating system using low level system calls.

There are many ways to delete a file, whether you want it to be secure or not, fast or not. Since nowadays, we use computers to store data (including confidential ones), we want to totally delete a file with no traces for any file recovery solution. The program supports Zero Data 1 Pass, British HMG IS5-Baseline 1 Pass, Russian GOST P50739-95 2 Passes, British HMG IS5-Enhanced 3 Passes, US DoD 5220.22-M / Canadian RCMP DSX 3 Passes, German VSITR 7 Passes, Bruce Schneier's 7 Passes, Canadian RCMP TSSIT OPS-II 7 Passes, and Peter Gutmann 35 Passes. The program is written in C# .NET. The source code is also available for download and you may contribute to the development here.
