Re: Disk encryption may not be secure enough said by mikenolan7:There is a software memory wiper called SMEM. It was included in older versions of the System Rescue CD. I haven't downloaded a copy of System Rescue lately, so I don't know if it is still one of their packages. Yes, thanks. SMEM is one of numerous integrated Linux commands.
From Sysresccd-manual-en Secure Deletion of Data quote:
SMEM from the THC-Secure Deletion Tools ( see »www.thc.org/releases.php?q=delete ) does a secure overwriting of unused memory (RAM)
For more information about SMEM, SRC, SHRED, etc. see:
