Publisher review for Secure Shredder :

Review by: Lightway
Secure Shredder is a small utility that can help you avoid such unpleasant situations by enabling you to encrypt the content of a file before deleting it. Thus, even if someone somehow manages to recover one of your documents or files, they cannot open it.



Despite its name, this application does not actually make a file completely vanish from your hard drive. It functions more like an encryption tool, overwriting the file content at lower level and making it practically unusable.



Its simplicity and ease of use is another of its strong points. The GUI consists of a single window, only comprising a field dedicated to entering the file path (or browse for the file using the designated button), right next to a plain button that triggers the operation. Unfortunately, drag and drop is not currently supported.



Once the 'Shred' button is pressed, the application prompts you for confirmation. Please note that you should create a backup of the files you want to process with Secure Shredder, since its actions might result in permanent data loss.



A 'shredded' file cannot be opened anymore with the default application. We tested the application with videos, documents, pictures and everything worked just fine.
