Certified Destruction Standards
PhantomWipe implements the world's most rigorous data sanitization standards, trusted by defense agencies to permanently destroy targeted files, ensuring total irrecoverability against forensic recovery.
- ✓ Basic 1-Pass: Fast random overwrite suitable for low-risk data sanitization.
- ✓ DoD 5220.22-M: High-security 3-pass standard (zeros, ones, cryptographically secure random).
- ✓ Gutmann 35-Pass: Maximum security designed to defeat magnetic resonance and MFM.
- ✓ Destruction Certificates: Generate cryptographic, verifiable audit logs of successful wipes.
Hardware-Aware & Complete Eradication
The HardwareOptimizedWipe engine dynamically adjusts erasure strategy by detecting the storage medium (NVMe, SSD, APFS Hybrid), invoking built-in controller capabilities and bypassing standard file system abstractions.
- ✓ SSD-Aware TRIM Commands: Aggressive post-wipe execution clears FTL mapping tables.
- ✓ Free Space Sanitation: Streams 4MB chunks to cycle all SSD over-provisioned blocks, obliterating standard "Trash" data.
- ✓ APFS Metadata Scrubbing: Destroys volume journaling records and file snapshots.
- ✓ Slack Space Overwriting: Trailing sector fragments are wiped to eliminate cross-file residues.
