| Description: | Secure replacement for rm (1.2.8-1) | |
Unlike the standard rm, srm overwrites the data in the target files before
unlinking them. This prevents command-line recovery of the data by examining
the raw block device. It may also help frustrate physical examination of the
disk, although it's unlikely that it can completely prevent that type of
recovery.
It is, essentially, a paper shredder for sensitive files. | ||
