Security levels of document destruction
For high-stakes data security, Kobra’s industrial shredders play a critical role protecting information for all-size companies, from the small business to enterprises like the FBI and CIA. Our machines utilize advanced cutting technology to transform sensitive documents, electronics, and data-bearing materials into near-impossible-to-reconstruct particles. This safeguards your confidential information from unauthorized access, theft, and breaches, preventing reputational damage, financial losses, and legal issues.
Document destruction is paramount for a company safety, here a guide to help you through different security levels:
Electronic devices:
- Security level E-3: Fragments of electronic media with maximum dimension 160mm²
- Security level E-7: Fragments of electronic media with maximum dimension 0,5mm²
Documents:
- Security level P-4: It is the most commonly used in offices, allowing a good ratio between results and speed. The fragments have a maximum size of 160 mm²
- Security level P-5: The fragments, which are very small in size (max. 30 mm²), are suitable for protecting particularly sensitive data.
- Higher security levels P-6 and P-7: The fragments are very small in size (max 10 mm² for P-6 and max 5 mm² for P-7) and are in use on classified secret or government documents
