The software wipes the USB drive with such algorithms as US DoD 5220.22-M, US DoD 5200.28-STD, US DoE, Bruce Schneier, German BCI/VSITR, Peter Gutmann, Pseudo RNG, Windows RNGĪnd Quick 3-Pass Wipe. Bootable USB drives loses the capabilities of booting to OS after the erase. The software does not analyze file system or operating system on the USB drive it could be Windows, Linux, Unix, MacOS, or any other OS with one or more partition. Any known or unknown computer virus is eliminated from the USB storage device in the process of data erase. MBR (Master Boot Record), boot records, OS boot loaders, partition tables, active partition flags, and all partitions as well as space in between are overwritten by irregular patterns of junk data generated by the software. USB Secure Erase software writes different patterns of junk data to your USB drive multiple times, and make data recovery impossible. The built-in format program on Microsoft Windows does not thoroughly wipe all the data on your USB drive, if you keep the Quick Format settings unchanged. USB Secure Erase helps you secure your data for disposal and all your sensitive and private information are permanently deleted. Computer users need to exercise caution when throwing away their USB drives, as data was found on many secondhand flash drives recycled in the US. Data recovery software can easily recover the deleted or formatted files in less than 10 minutes. The FAT32-formatted USB drive you use to provision devices for remote secure erase should have these HP remote secure erase (RSE) files in the root directory. However, neither simple deletion nor formatting erases files completely.
