Simply deleting your files leaves traces of them that make it possible to recover them. SpyZooka's file shredder ensures your files are permanently shredded beyond recovery!
How the file shredder works is by overwriting the data making it impossible to recover. Our detailed help guide on Overwrites is here.
If you are looking to shred an entire drive we recommend you use SpyZooka's Drive Shredder
SpyZooka's File Shredder Has 3 Overwrite Options
3 Overwrites > our recommendation for being the fastest and while there are more secure overwrite options. The US Department of Defense uses a standard 3 overwrite shredder for their digital files.
7 Overwrites > this is more secure but slower
35 Overwrites > Probably more than anyone would ever need. But here at SpyZooka we like to over design our software!
Adding Files to File Shredder
There are two methods of adding files to file shredder.
You can right click on a file, folder, picture document or video and add it to the file shredder by selecting "Shred with SpyZooka"
