Whether it's NVRAM or a flash device of some type, I'd think that saving a bogus config (or IOS image) equal to the size of the device and erasing it a couple times would eliminate any recoverable old configs.

There are utilities out there that allow you to write a zeros to a disk to ensure that the data on that system is unrecoverable. Does anyone know if there is something similar that you can do on a Cisco device to prevent data from being recovered?
