Lavasoft File Shredder

Take control of the confidental information on your PC!

You know you should shred sensitive documents in a paper shredder to protect yourself against data and identity theft. The same is true for data on your PC. Information you erase by formatting your hard drive, or using your computer's "delete" key is still easily recoverable.

Digital information is increasingly stored on our computers, leaving the door wide open to security and privacy breaches. Even after you think you have deleted files, they still remain on your computer. When you delete a file, empty your Recycle Bin or format your hard disk, you only alter the structure of the drive, leaving most of the data intact and recoverable.

Lavasoft File Shredder helps you take control of the information you don't want anyone else to get their hands on, by permanently removing the files.
