<p>Use alternative platform-supplied functions that will not get optimized away. Examples of such
functions include <code>memset_s</code>, <code>SecureZeroMemory</code>, and <code>bzero_explicit</code>.
Alternatively, passing the <code>-fno-builtin-memset</code> option to the GCC/Clang compiler usually

below) can be used. This function, however, is not guaranteed to work on all platforms and compilers.</p>
