When it comes to disposing of confidential documents, relying on a personal office shredder can be risky and inefficient. SecureShred offers professional shredding services that ensure your sensitive information is destroyed securely and in compliance with privacy regulations, preventing it from falling into the wrong hands.
Limitations of Personal Office Shredders
Compact office shredders may seem like a cost-effective solution, but they have several drawbacks:
- Limited Capabilities: Typical office shredders can only handle paper documents, not other media like CDs, DVDs, or backup drives. SecureShred’s advanced equipment can destroy a variety of materials completely.
- Incomplete Destruction: Office shredders often leave documents in strips, which can potentially be reassembled. SecureShred’s methods reduce documents to small, mixed particles, making reconstruction impossible.
- Time Consumption: Shredding with an office machine is time-consuming, as these devices can only handle small volumes and frequently jam. They also require you or your employee’s constant attention. This process can drain significant time and resources from your business.
- Security Risks: Using an office shredder can pose security and compliance risks. These machines often leave shredded documents readable, exposing your business to potential breaches. Additionally, employees handling sensitive information during disposal could inadvertently compromise data security.
