Shredo 1.2.8.1
Shredo 1.2.8.1 | macOS | 10 mb
Securely erase file and folders and make sure the information cannot be recovered by re-writing the data up to 35 times while using various algorithms. Marking files for deletion does not mean the data is instantly erased from the drive: the information remains stored until the operating system decides to write new data on top of it As a result, there are numerous file recovery tools out there that offer you the possibility to get back items that you have deleted by mistake. Shredo is a small utility that can help you make the recovery process harder or even impossible.
Depending on security level and data-erase speed, you have 3 shredding methods at your disposal:
1-pass - Offers good security and quickest erase of data. It deletes access information to your files and writes random bytes over the data once.
7-pass - Slower speed, but better security than 1-pass. Writes over data 7 times, based on US Department of Defence (DoD) 5220-20 M standard algorithms.
35-pass - Slowest, but offers the best security. Erases file access info and writes over the data 35 times, based on the Gutmann method for deletion.
Shredo supports external volumes and flash drives, but depending on their size and method selected, shredding time many vary.
Compatibility: macOS 10.11 or later (Apple Silicon compatible)
