I would like to be able to securely delete (zeroize) a value in a sled database.

Can i assume that if i overwrite a value by inserting a vector of zero bytes of the same length as the original stored value, the original value will no longer exist on disk?

Without knowing how sled represents values internally i cannot be sure if this is the case.
