Secure empty trash has disappeared

[annandale2]

I just noticed that the "Secure Empty Trash" has disappeared... possibly when I upgraded to El Capitan. Is it no longer available?

Yes, it is no longer part of El Capitan, even the latest version, 10.11.1. The following link provides information how you can still invoke that feature:
