Additional task scheduling options
- At system startup – before logon
Wiping tasks scheduled 'at startup' were previously performed at user log on. For added security, this properly evolved 'startup' task schedule now truly runs at system startup before user log on. When wiping tasks run at startup, they are not displayed on the screen anywhere – the wiping operation is performed in the background, transparently and silently. Scheduling wiping tasks at user log on is now listed more accurately as the 'logon' option.
- At logoff/shutdown
When a user has finished working on the computer and is ready to leave for the day, BCWipe tasks can just be set to run at logoff/shutdown without additional effort. Scheduling tasks at logoff/shutdown also increases the power for wiping web browser history. Some Internet Explorer files are locked by the system and cannot be completely wiped while Windows is active. Running wiping tasks at logoff resolves this issue.
- While no users are logged on
If wiping tasks are set to run on a regular schedule (daily or weekly), then they can still be completed even if the user is logged off. In cases where multiple users share a computer, a wiping task scheduled by one user will still run if another user is logged on – wiping tasks run as long as the computer is turned on.
Expanded use of Wipe Internet History and Wipe Local History
