That's about it. A safe remove command is needed? And if yes, does one need something more complex than one pass?


If your drive password is compromised, the filesystem is exposed, so in theory is possible to retrieve the content of the file, as if it was on a non encrypted disk.

So, in my opinion, yes, a safe remove command is necessary and with all the passes you may need (which depend on the confidentiality of the file).
