Description : srm is a secure replacement for rm(1). Unlike the standard rm, it
: overwrites the data in the target files before unlinkg them. This
: prevents command-line recovery of the data by examining the raw block
: device. It may also help frustrate physical examination of the disk,
: although it's unlikely that completely protects against this type of
: recovery.
