Windows Manage Safe Delete
Description
The goal of the module is to hinder the recovery of deleted files by overwriting its contents. This could be useful when you need to download some file on the victim machine and then delete it without leaving clues about its contents. Note that the script does not wipe the free disk space so temporary/sparse/encrypted/compressed files could not be overwritten. Note too that MTF entries are not overwritten so very small files could stay resident within the stream descriptor.

Module Options
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
