Have you ever run a bank statement or credit card bill through a file shredder? The narrow strips of paper recovered make excellent packing material but in no way make your bank account or credit card numbers safe from theft. Some Scotch tape and a bit of patience could easily piece together your private records. If one truly wanted to destroy those records beyond recognition, the paper would have to be placed into a machine known as a confetti shredder. And, even then, the pieces may not be small enough to prevent reconstruction. Digital data faces the same problems as does printed information. In order to be made secure or permanently deleted, it must be broken down to the smallest particle possible. That is the purpose and function of the REMO file shredder.
This excellent data eraser program utilizes a variety of shredding patterns to rip digital information stored in files and folders down to a collection of their base components. Once the REMO file eraser has been used, the information can never be recovered or stolen.
