Data clean-up in Recycle Bin is not enough!
Deleting unwanted important documents and placing it into the recycle / trash bin for destruction is just another way to ‘hide’ data in your PC. Most data destructed in this way can be retrieved by ‘retrieval’ programs widely available to hackers, identity thieves or your computer repair shop! The better and more secured way is to shred it; just like you would with confidential papers using a shredding machine in the office or at home.

Make sure you shred your important files before parting with your PC!
The next time you send your PC for repair, sell it on the second hand market or lend it to others, make sure you shred all your confidential documents before doing so; otherwise you risk letting your important information fall into the hands of others! To wipe out your confidential documents completely, you need to install a data shredding software. These programs rewrite your data multiple times with a random series of binary data, thus making them completely irretrievable and unreadable.
