The "Fortress Mode" feature in O&O SafeErase creates its own Windows environment that operates completely isolated from the actual Windows environment. This isolation of the system and data protects against access by other applications that can prevent secure deletion. This provides a completely secure and controlled environment for data deletion without the need for additional hardware.
Accessible via the O&O SafeErase startpage.
The "Fortress Mode" feature in O&O SafeErase offers a special function to enhance data security when deleting sensitive information on a Windows system. It creates a separate Windows environment that is completely isolated from the standard operating system environment. This isolation plays a key role as it prevents other applications running on the main system from accessing the data to be deleted or interfering with the deletion process.
This strict separation ensures that no malware, spyware, or other harmful software that may be active on the main system can disrupt the deletion operations. Thus, "Fortress Mode" provides a highly effective method to ensure that all selected data is irretrievably and securely removed without the need for external or additional hardware.
