[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] Looking for Utility to Zero Out End of Sector

chanel@mensa.usc.edu (chanel summers) (04/26/91)

Can someone point me to a program which overwrites the garbage which fills out
the last sector of a file?  We regularly use Norton's Wipedisk (erased space
selection) for security reasons, but find that sensitive data is, in part
accessible by examining the last sector of a file which has overwritten
a previously-deleted file which HASN'T yet been wiped.

Is there such a program which will zero out the space in a sector after the
end of a file (per its length in its directory entry)?

Reply to this group or by e-mail.  If by e-mail, I will summarize for net.
