SecureWipe

SecureWipe is a free, open-source tool for erasing disks on Linux and Windows 10/11. It identifies HDD, SSD, and NVMe drives by model and serial number, and detects LUKS, BitLocker, and SED encryption. For encrypted drives it offers Crypto Erase first. Other methods include ANSSI Level 1 and 2, NIST Clear and Purge, and custom two-to-seven-pass wipes for HDDs. The tool blocks erasure of the system disk and disables NIST Purge for USB and other removable drives. Because overwriting is ineffective with SSD and NVMe wear-leveling, it blocks overwrite passes on those media and offers firmware-level or crypto erase options. After erasure, it checks a random sample, 10% by default, and produces a timestamped PDF certificate with drive details, method, verification result, watermark, and SHA-256 QR code, plus a raw text log. It has graphical and terminal modes, supports French and English with automatic locale detection, and requires Python 3.10 or later. The GUI also requires customtkinter. Its README identifies GPL v3 licensing and provides the software without warranty.
