Secure Delete on Linux

Let's face it - we do a lot that involves sensitive information. On Windows, I've installed the SDelete command from SysInternals (thank you, Microsoft, for buying them and NOT cancelling their work!). On Ubuntu, it's just as easy...

To install the secure delete tools:
user@machine:~$ sudo apt-get install secure-delete

To delete a file, just use the "srm" command:
user@machine:~$ srm filename

The more ya know...
