Dear SCF members,
this time I would to talk about security but not for PCs
,
let's talk about how to securely destroy confidential documents?Do you work in an office? At a school, retail site, manufacturer or hospital?
Knowing what to do with paper documents from the minute they’re created to the moment they’re no longer needed is a business imperative today to comply with privacy legislation. A paper shredder is a mechanical device used to cut paper into chad, typically either strips or fine particles. Government organizations, businesses, and private individuals use shredders to destroy private, confidential, or otherwise sensitive documents. Privacy experts often recommend that individuals shred bills, tax documents, credit card and bank account statements, and other items which could be used by thieves to commit fraud or identity theft.
