LibSecRm

LibSecRm - a library which ensures secure removing of files and clearing memory on the system to prevent leakage of sensitive data.

The function replacements in LibSecRm first securely wipe the part of the file which would be deleted (just like shred, but only rejected parts of files get destroyed, not the whole files) to prevent leakage of sensitive data.

After that, the original functions get called to do their job, so that the calling program can continue working as usual.

Read the info documentation (type info doc/libsecrm.info) to get more information.
