iShredder™ – secure data eraser & file shredder for Android
Protect your privacy before you sell, trade in, repair, recycle or hand over your phone. iShredder securely erases photos, files, folders and empty space so deleted data becomes extremely difficult to recover — even with recovery apps or forensic tools. Use certified wipe methods, erasure reports and business-ready workflows for secure device handover.
WHY DELETE ISN’T ENOUGH
On Android, tapping “delete” often removes only file references. The underlying data blocks may remain on storage and can sometimes be found later. Even a basic factory reset may leave traces of old content behind. iShredder overwrites empty space and selected storage areas multiple times, helping reduce residual data rather than simply hiding it.
MILITARY-GRADE, CERTIFIED ERASURE
iShredder supports trusted erase methods such as DoD 5220.22-M, NIST SP 800-88, BSI TL-03423 and other internationally recognized standards. These methods overwrite data with carefully defined patterns, making recovery extremely difficult.
The Android app has been independently audited and awarded DEKRA MASA L1 security certification, aligned with OWASP MASVS Level 1. iShredder has also received the Fortress Cybersecurity Award 2025, recognizing strong erasure technology and app security.
