Protect your privacy from data spies

The complete solution for your data protection

Deleting files, directories, drives or the entire PC – no problem with O&O SafeErase! Your internet traces can also be deleted quickly and securely at the touch of a button. At some point, every user of a Windows PC comes to the point where a hard drive or SSD needs to be deleted or certain documents need to be securely destroyed.

If the computer is sold or given away, personal photos or business information can easily fall into the wrong hands. Because deleting it under Windows does not mean that it is permanently removed. This program allows you to securely destroy and overwrite using recognized procedures so that restoration is no longer possible.

Avoid the risks

Misuse can have serious consequences, from identity theft to financial loss. Simply “deleting” files is not enough as they can often be recovered. This program ensures that it is irretrievably removed using advanced algorithms that meet the strictest security standards.

Unique Fortress Mode

With the Fortress Mode, you can now destroy your sensitive information even more efficiently and securely. To do this, your PC is placed in a locked mode in which no other application can access. This not only makes the process faster, but also safer, as background processes cannot influence the process or even write new sensitive material during the run.

Surf the Internet without a trace

As you surf the Internet, your browser usually silently stores information about your history and actions. This can provide information about websites visited and even access your information. SafeErase supports current browsers and allows you to safely erase their data and therefore your traces.

Delete the entire PC

Wiping the entire computer allows you to securely remove everything before selling, giving away, or disposing of the computer. All files, settings, applications and even the operating system are securely shredded so that recovery is not possible. This does not require any additional hardware and is ready to use straight away.

Six methods for maximum security

The program offers you the choice between six different deletion methods. These differ in their speed and thoroughness. In addition to standardized procedures from the U.S. Departments of Defense (DoD) and the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), you can also choose a complex mathematical method (Gutmann method) that meets the highest security requirements. This means it even exceeds the current requirements of the BSI and DoD.
