The most obvious name for the binary is 'srm', probably should be in /usr/bin/ rather than /bin. That conflicts with the pacakge zlibc's /usr/bin/srm. Anyone have ideas for a replacement name? http://srm.sourceforge.net/ The web page indicates that it is already in Debian unstable, I can't find it. from the package: srm is a secure replacement for rm(1). Unlike the standard rm, it overwrites the data in the target files before unlinkg them. This prevents command-line recovery of the data by examining the raw block device. It may also help frustrate physical examination of the disk, although it's unlikely that completely protects against this type of recovery. Srm uses algorithms found in _Secure Deletion of Data from Magnetic and Solid-State Memory_ by Peter Gutmann and THC Secure Delete (the overwrite, truncate, rename, unlink sequence). X11 license.
