ShredOS is a lightweight, bootable Linux-based operating system designed specifically for secure disk erasure and data destruction. It enables users to permanently wipe hard drives, SSDs, and NVMe devices using the powerful nwipe utility and multiple industry-recognized wiping methods. Compatible with both BIOS and UEFI systems, ShredOS supports PCs, servers, and Intel-based Macs running on 32-bit and 64-bit processors.

nwipe is a fork of the dwipe command originally used by Darik's Boot and Nuke (DBAN). nwipe was created out of a need to run the DBAN dwipe command outside of DBAN, in order to allow its use with any host distribution, thus giving better hardware support. nwipe is a program that will securely erase the entire contents of disks. It can wipe a single drive or multiple disks simultaneously. It can operate as both a command line tool without a GUI or with a ncurses GUI.
