A system, method and computer program product for purging contents of a data storage device provided in a computing device. The system is an RFID-based system comprising: an RFID device provided in the computing device and adapted for receiving and sending RFID signals, and in response to receipt of an RFID signal, the device generating an activation signal representing an instruction to purge contents of data storage device contents; and, a control means responsive to the activation signal received from the RFID device for invoking logic to initiate a physical purge of contents of the data storage device. By applying GPS and RFID object movement can be detected and alerts triggered and data signals generated that invokes logic to yield a disk or data purge thus ensuring that a compromised computing device has no recoverable or accessible data.
