Miami, Florida - ProtectStar today is proud to release the update version 2.0.10 of iShredder Mac, their military grade data deletion tool for macOS. The app allows users to drag-and-drop files, folders, hard drives, an external drives to the app's shredding area and securely erase the data with just a click of the "Shred" button. The new update is also fully compliant with the European privacy legislation (GDPR) and compatible with the latest macOS Mojave.

Using the same data shredding techniques as their popular iShredder iOS app to wipe iPhone and iPad devices, ProtectStar's iShredder Mac securely erases data using secure erasure algorithms that meet and exceed government, military, and industry standards. The software eliminates any chance for data reconstruction, even by government agencies.

"Many users believe that when they delete a file from their Mac, that they're gone for good. The truth is, the files can be recovered using any one of a number of macOS disk utilities. That's due to the way computers "delete" files. They don't really remove the data, they simply mark the files as deleted," says Chris Bohn, CEO of ProtectStar. "Files aren't really gone forever until that storage space is overwritten using secure deletion algorithms. iShredder Mac securely overwrites the 'deleted' files using patented security standards, making it impossible to recover any deleted data."

This ensures that the files that contain fragments of your personal data are erased.
