Formatting a hard drive does not (so I read) make it impossible for someone
to lift 'deleted' information. To do this the hard disk needs to be
'security wiped' (writing 0s and 1s all over the unused area).
CDs and DVDs are (arguable) more likely to contain information which,
because they are 'portable', is more important to make secure. Nero writes
files to temporary files before burning to disk so it isn't possible to
write directly to the CD - required to do a wipe.
Any suggestions how to security wipe CDs /DVDs please?
Thanks.
