Acronis DriveCleanser offers you another useful capability — to estimate the results of

executing a data destruction method on a hard disk or partition. It features an integrated

DiskViewer hard disk browsing tool.

The aforementioned methods offer various levels of confidential data destruction. Thus the

picture you might see on disk or partition depends on the data destruction method. But what

you actually see are disk sectors filled with either zeros or random symbols.

16.4 Creating custom methods of data destruction

Acronis DriveCleanser gives you an opportunity to create your own methods for wiping hard

disks. Although the software includes several levels of data destruction, you can choose to

create your own. This is recommended only for advanced users familiar with the principles of

data destruction used in secure disk wiping methods.

To create a custom method of hard disk wiping, select the "Custom…" item from the drop-

down list in the Method selection window.

Click the Next button to continue. This time the Custom method wizard will be started and

you will be able to create a data destruction method matching your security requirements.

Having completed the creation, you can save the method you created. This will be handy if

you are going to use it again.

To save your method, you need to give it a filename and show the path to the folder you

want to store it in by selecting the folder from the tree shown in the left pane.

Each custom method is stored in a separate file with its own name. If you try to write a

new method to an already existing file, the existing file’s contents will be erased.

If you created and saved your method for data destruction while working with Acronis

DriveCleanser, you can use it later the following way:

In the Method selection window, choose Load from file… from the drop-down list and

select the file with custom data destruction method parameters. By default, such files have

*.alg extension.
