Standard DoD 5220.22-M

US Department of Defense in the clearing and sanitizing standard DoD 5220.22-M recommends the approach "Overwrite all addressable locations with a character, its complement, then a random character and verify" (see table with comments) for clearing and sanitizing information on a writable media.

To conform this security standard in Active@ KillDisk Professional version this approach has been implemented, i.e. one pass equals triple data overwriting for the destruction of remains of sensitive data.
