BitKiller

BitKiller is a lightweight software application whose purpose is to help users delete data securely from their computer.
Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry.
You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you to need to wipe out items on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps.
When opting for a normal deletion process, you should take into account that your sensitive information may be retrieved by other users with the help of recovery tools. This is why you need dedicated tools, like BitKiller, to help you delete files permanently from the PC.
BitKiller boasts a clean and simplistic layout pointing out to the fact that the accent doesn’t fall upon the looks of the program but rather on its functionality.
Files can be uploaded into the working environment using the “drag and drop” support or built-in browse button. Plus, you are allowed to upload the content of an entire folder to the list, and remove the selected items or clear the entire list with just one click.
The program offers support for batch processing, which means you can add multiple items and process them at the same time.
BitKiller comprises several file shredding algorithms, DoD (US Department of Defense) standards and Peter Gutmann’s sanitization method, as well as additional wiping methods, which give you the possibility to overwrite the sensitive information with zeros or random data.
During our testing we have noticed that BitKiller carries out the deletion process very quickly. It doesn’t eat up a lot of CPU and memory, so the overall performance of the computer is not hampered.
As a conclusion, BitKiller proves to be a reliable application that comes bundled with powerful wiping algorithms for making sure your data is securely removed from the computer. The intuitive layout is the ace up its sleeve, which makes it an ideal tool for beginners and professionals alike.
