- wipe: secure file deletion
Recovery of supposedly erased data from magnetic media is easier than
what many people would like to believe. A technique called Magnetic
Force Microscopy (MFM) allows any moderately funded opponent to recover
the last two or three layers of data written to disk. Wipe repeatedly
writes special patterns to the files to be destroyed, using the fsync()
call and/or the O_SYNC bit to force disk access.
.
Wipe can permanently delete data in hard disks and flash drives (caution!
several writes can damage solid medias).
.
This program is useful in anti-forensics and security activities.
