The range of Intimus data shredders from Martin Yale can shred paper, CDs, DVDs, floppy disks, Zip disks and other media disks. The shredders cover all levels of security from general level 1 to top secret level 5 security.

Martin Yale's range meets all the requirements imposed with regard to data protection and always includes practical and efficient shredder technology. Today, they can safely and consistently shred not only classical data media, from notelets to thick computer lists and even complete folders with lever mechanism, but also such modern media as CDs and floppy disks.

It is a basic tenet of our product philosophy to supply a cost-effective shredder version for every current application.
 

PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION

Data protection is not an extravagance, but a guarantee of the effective protection of personal and business interests - supporting the motto "Knowledge is power but silence is golden".

Responsibility for data protection cannot be delegated. Misuse of expired data media creates embarrassing situations: If personal data is involved, Data Protection Laws protect the injured party and the offender will be punished. If company data is not properly destructed, jobs are possibly jeopardised.

Pure universal aim is all encompassing security. For data protection this means consistent shredding of all unneeded data media.

This is why data shredders are needed in all key areas.

KEY DECISIONS

The key security criteria when choosing a data shredder are ensuring ease of access for the user and identifying the correct shred size required.

The standard governing data protection - DIN 32757 classifies data media according to the information they contain and groups them in five classes which can be summarily described as follows:

• Security level 1 - GENERAL

• Security level 2 - INTERNAL

• Security level 3 - CONFIDENTIAL

• Security level 4 - SECRET

• Security level 5-  TOP SECRET

After deciding on the location and security level (size of shreds), the practical performance values must be established, such as the working width, e.g. for DIN A4 documents or computer paper, as well as the throughput. The right data shredder will inevitably be chosen once these criteria are clarified.

Throughout the large intimus range, investment is justified by performance.

ORGANISATION

Intimus shredders blend harmoniously with their office surroundings: modern design, trendy colours, compact and quiet. Thus they enhance rather than tarnish any office or department.

On the contrary. Having these "security guards" in plain view encourages their routine use. Martin Yale have divided their large range of intimus data shredders into practical groups so that you can easily choose your "security guard" confidently.

Its position is the most important criterion: beside the desk - whether at home or in the office, in the office - for small groups use or in the department - for multiple users with high volumes. Each group offers a choice of security level as defined by DIN 32757.

A data shredder in constant sight has an image-boosting effect, for it clearly indicates that "security is our priority"!
