Blancco File Eraser (PC)Home Edition:

Blancco File Eraser is an extremely flexible application which boasts many different methods of integration. The basic installation level is called “Blancco File Eraser (PC)” Home Edition” and enables the typical end-user to erase files and folders on a daily basis. Additionally, temporary files such as the browser cache, the recycling bin and even free disk space on the hard drive can be targeted. It sports an easy to navigate user interface but also provides a “Secure Erasure Bin” icon for replacing the Windows Recycle Bin on the desktop. Files and folders can be simply dragged and dropped into this icon for a secure erasure. Regular erasure of this sensitive data helps prevent potential data leaks and helps organizations adhere to compliance standards and regulations.
