Kores Easy Cut 822N

Description

A paper shredder is a mechanical device that cuts sheets of paper and other sensitive documents into small strips or particles, making them difficult or impossible to reassemble. It is used by businesses, governments, and individuals to destroy confidential information, preventing fraud, identity theft, and unauthorized access to sensitive data. Shredders vary in their cutting styles, including strip-cut, cross-cut, and micro-cut, offering different levels of security.

Purpose

• Security:

To destroy private, confidential, or otherwise sensitive documents to prevent their misuse.

• Compliance:

To meet regulations for document destruction in corporate and government settings.

Types of Shredders (Cut Styles)

• Strip-Cut Shredder:

Cuts paper into long, thin strips. It offers the lowest security as the strips can still be read and pieced back together.

• Cross-Cut Shredder:

Shreds documents into smaller, confetti-like fragments, often rectangular or diamond-shaped. This provides better security than strip-cut models for sensitive papers.

• Micro-Cut Shredder:

Reduces papers to tiny, dust-like particles, making them virtually impossible to reassemble. This type offers the highest level of security for highly sensitive or classified information.

Other Features

• Manual Operation: Some basic models require hand-operation.
• Auto-Feed: Allows users to load stacks of paper at once.

Multi-Material Capabilities: Some shredders can also destroy other materials like credit cards, CDs, and DVDs.
