Secure File Shredder - Multi-Pass File Wiper & Free-Space Sanitizer

ScreenshotScreenshotScreenshot

Secure File Shredder is a filesystem-level multi-pass file and directory
shredder and mounted-folder free-space sanitizer for Linux desktops.
An independent Linux alternative inspired by SDelete, it overwrites regular
files in place before unlinking and scrubs unallocated space inside writable
mounted folders using standard user-space file operations.

Key Features:
- Multi-Pass File & Directory Overwrite: Supports 1-Pass Zero (0x00),
3-Pass Overwrite (0x00, 0xFF, os.urandom with readback verification), and
7-Pass Shred patterns with explicit os.fsync() flushes after every pass.
- Metadata Scrubbing Before Unlink: Truncates overwritten files, performs
multi-round random alphanumeric filename renames to scrub directory entry
names, syncs parent directories, and unlinks targets cleanly.
- Bounded Mounted-Folder Free-Space Sanitizer: Inspects real mounted Linux
filesystems via /proc/mounts and os.statvfs(), writing bounded zero/random
wipe container files in any selected writable folder with automatic cleanup.
- Live Speed Meter & Wipe Audit Log: Measures real MB/s write throughput,
supports Pause/Resume/Cancel, inspects file inodes and byte headers, and
exports timestamped wipe audit logs to CSV, JSON, or TXT.
- Bilingual Interface: Instant switch between Vietnamese and English.
