Formatting your device is not a secured way to clear off your data

Posted on: 27/Dec/2017 11:17:19 AM
Whenever there is a need to erase files from any devices before selling or providing it to your known circle the Format option is the only tool to make sure all files are cleared off properly.

Formatting will ensure your security is a kind of myth and there is always a room for data theft even after the device is entirely formatted.

Reputed Data erasure software comes in handy for this purpose to make sure your device’s date is completely wiped off before passing it to the buyers or colleagues in your work place. A latest study conducted by the Stellar Data Recovery shows that almost 90 percent of Hard disks and Tabs in the second hand market contains previously formatted sensitive and confidential data.

Hackers will easily retrieve the data from these unsecured devices and use it against you personally or on your organization that may result you a risk in your job. There are also hundreds of videos available on the Internet to recover formatted data from the devices. So it is clear that formatting is not a secure option for your device before handling it to other hands.

The only safe method is to use secured data erasing software to delete all the files form your device making sure it cannot be recovered again on any other means.
