It's a wonderful way to say "good luck in your new job"?

I think the only "approved" process for hard drive wiping by the "NSA"
is catastrophic EMP magnetization of the drive. Yes I read that the NSA
approved bcwipe, but that's dod standards, internally I don't think they
allow anything but complete destruction before letting a hard drive
leave the building.

Your site, if dealing with NSA information will have a policy in place
for file and hard drive deletion. Rather than going out on your own, you
should probably talk to your point of contact.

Personally I use eraser with Guttman settings and disk nuke on random
infinite wipe and let it run for the week. I seriously doubt that won't
stop anyone without a multi million dollar budget and a serious interest
in my data.
