It has been quite a few times where my colleagues or I had to recover data for customers. Even with my usb flash drive, there were files that I had deleted and brought it all back. When I heard of dban, I thought "quite a powerful tool". I have been doing research lately on ways where the data recovery processed is used beyond the storage devices. Overall my colleagues and I are happy to provide a service to the college community and help with any questions my fellow peers may have.Andrewnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28559395.post-6609870578259505392009-06-15T11:16:05.501-04:002009-06-15T11:16:05.501-04:00Hey Pete, I posted about DBAN last year, I am all ...Hey Pete, I <a href="http://profcameron.blogspot.com/2008/08/so-what-do-i-do-with-that-old-hard.html" rel="nofollow">posted about DBAN</a> last year, I am all for it since it meets Department of Defense standards...and you know if the government is endorsing something that is free that it must be doing something right.Professor Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08683440304854324235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28559395.post-84652735065530097772009-06-14T19:27:32.242-04:002009-06-14T19:27:32.242-04:00http://www.dban.org/

DBAN will automatically and completely delete the contents of any hard disk that it can detect, which makes it an appropriate utility for bulk or emergency data destruction.<br /><br />DBAN is a means of ensuring due diligence in computer recycling, a way of preventing identity theft if you want to sell a computer, and a good way to totally clean a Microsoft Windows installation of viruses and spyware. DBAN prevents or thoroughly hinders all known techniques of hard disk forensic analysis.<br /><br />The development and support of the DBAN software project is funded in part by GEEP International. GEEP is the largest, the most efficient, and the most environmentally conscientious consumer electronics recycling company in North America.Peter Musolinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01031249417205199048noreply@blogger.com
