Confidential vs. Secure Eraser

It caters to the requirements for data compliance and protects against data loss for both enterprises and individual users, focusing on files that are spread across multiple hard drives. It functions effortlessly across local drives, shared drives, and various cloud storage solutions. With the launch of Confidential 1.2.31, we've incorporated regular expression-based searches alongside content searches from Confidential 1.2, enabling users to instruct Confidential to "scan my disks and automatically label any data that resembles a credit card number, email address, invoice number, names from a predetermined list, or any other specified pattern defined by a regular expression." This feature can greatly support organizations in achieving GDPR compliance for unstructured data; after purging customer information from your databases, this tool will facilitate the identification of any remaining traces of customer data within all files located on your local and shared drives, rendering it an essential tool for effective data management. Moreover, the improved search capabilities ensure that no sensitive information is overlooked, thereby strengthening your organization’s dedication to maintaining data privacy and security while also enhancing operational efficiency.

Secure Eraser: A Reliable Solution for Permanent Data Deletion and File Shredding. Even after files are deleted from your hard drive, they may still be recoverable unless they have been overwritten. This risk increases when a computer is sold or passed on to someone else. Secure Eraser uses a widely recognized method for data destruction, effectively overwriting sensitive information to ensure it cannot be retrieved, even by advanced recovery tools. Our acclaimed software permanently removes data, eliminating any references that could potentially reveal remnants of deleted files in your hard drive's allocation table. This user-friendly Windows application allows you to overwrite sensitive information up to 35 times, whether they be files, folders, drives, or even traces in your recycle bin and web browsing history. Additionally, it provides the capability to securely erase files that you may have previously deleted but that still linger on your system. In this way, you can maintain your privacy and safeguard your information from unauthorized recovery.
