Summary
The mass media and the Internet are full of
stories about used computers being sold with hard
disk drives containing confidential data —
banking account information, credit card numbers,
social security data, human resource, accounting
and other internal documents, or even restricted
information concerning a company's board of directors!
This confidential data should not only be safeguarded
according to the strict rules, but it should also
be reliably and completely destroyed when needed.
You know you have deleted all the financial, corporate,
and personal files, and even formatted and deleted
hard disk partitions — but are they really
gone from the drive? The answer is NO!
Acronis® DriveCleanser® 6.0 ensures the
complete destruction of data on selected partitions
and/or entire disks. Acronis has a long history
of supporting all Microsoft operating systems
and now continues that tradition with full Microsoft
