Protectstar Presents iShredder iOS 5: Permanently and Securely Erase Sensitive Data from Your iPhone

March 05, 2025
Having personal information fall into the wrong hands is a nightmare. The new iShredder iOS 5 provides a straightforward and reliable solution with certified wiping methods to permanently erase sensitive data before your Apple iOS devices are sold, passed on, or disposed of. While a simple factory reset may still leave traces, iShredder guarantees the secure removal of all data according to the highest international and military security standards, such as DoD 5220.22-M, NIST SP 800-88, and BSI (TL-03423).

iShredder iOS: A Continuing Success Story
Even in previous versions, iShredder iOS established itself as the leading solution for forensically secure data deletion on Apple devices. Where a simple factory reset often fails to remove all digital traces, iShredder iOS overwrites storage multiple times, ensuring true irrecoverability. Millions of users worldwide—including government agencies and businesses—trust this tool.

“Our mission is to develop powerful yet easy-to-use security solutions that protect everyone’s privacy. With the new iShredder iOS 5, we continue that commitment by delivering secure data deletion at a new level,” explains Chris Bohn, Founder and CEO of Protectstar.

  • Simplicity Meets Power: An intuitive user interface ensures easy operation, quick wipe processes, and optimal stability—perfect for both beginners and professionals.
  • Convenient Dark Mode: The built-in Dark Mode is gentle on the eyes and improves readability.
