# Securely Remove Files
|
||||
|
||||
If you really want to make sure you have wiped a file from your hard drive,
|
||||
you are going to want to use `srm` instead of `rm`. The man page for `srm`
|
||||
gives the following description:
|
||||
|
||||
> srm removes each specified file by overwriting, renaming, and truncating
|
||||
> it before unlinking. This prevents other people from undeleting or
|
||||
> recovering any information about the file from the command line.
