![]() ![]() How to Securely Delete Files on Different Mac Versions? How to Securely Delete Files on Mac Forever? Part 3. When you say delete, it should mean that it’s gone, completely, right? It should be removed from the computer right then and there. However, it isn’t the case always with the Mac, as well as other iOS devices. When you delete files to free up purgeable space for your Mac, the files get erased but their shadows remain. Using the shadows, hackers can use this to decode the deleted information and may steal it for their selfish motives. When you delete files Mac and other iOS devices such as iPhone, the information stays hidden inside the hard drive until the data is overwritten. These data can even be taken against you in case it can be recovered. This means, your personal information is susceptible to identity theft. Well, I did it, I finally signed up and paid for a month which is more than enough time to get a good idea how AirVPN works for me and early indications are excellent, though I am tired tonight and have only had an hour or so to "play" around with it since I signed up. When I first ran the software I wanted to test the famous "kill switch" everyone rates so highly but I forgot I disabled windows firewall a long time ago in favor of Private firewall only and hadn't realised that your kill switch depends on WF Rules to work. Took a bit of messing about with services but got there eventually and the kill switch then worked ok. If anyone saw my other thread (moved to off topic) about my problems with my real IP address being revealed on (I won't bore you with it just have a read if you can be bothered), then I can confirm that with the kill switch in place, AirVPN DOES NOT appear to reveal my real IP address on the site or to the rest of the known world despite many server changes and refreshing the page as I did before! Superb! Then I could no longer connect to a new server so a swift reboot and I can now change servers at will with the kill switch in place. I then went to ookla a ran a speedtest.Um, wow, I have an 80 Megabit connection and on an AirVPN NL server I got a d/l speed of 65 Megabit so approx 6,5 mb/sec Astonishing!įastest I ever saw with NordVPN on ANY server was approx 1.3 mb/sec, yes, I did mean 1.3 mb/sec. Įurther thorough testing will continue but so far it seems to be looking good! If that's the case, I will be signing up for a 12 month package after my month ends.
