e-Shredding

Deleting files (following the empty recycle bin operation) does not guarantee security against professional file recovery tools. However, a higher security level on delete can be achieved by physically overwriting all the file's bits saved on memory. Electronic file shredding in e-Capsule™ Explorer is implemented by overwriting the deleted files' content and attributes seven times: three times with fixed bit values and four times with cryptographically secure pseudo-random sequences.

This procedure provides security above the standard dictated by the U.S. Ministry Of Defense (DOD 5220.22-M/NISPOM 8-306). However, for absolute security on your top-secret documents we suggest that you never store such files on hard disk drives, but only on removable storage media (such as 3.5" high-density disks). After successfully uploading your documents on the e-Capsule™ repository, you should physically destroy the used storage media in order to preclude any chance of recovery.
