You may have installed a number of security measures in your office information systems. These may just be in vain if you leave some data in pieces of paper and throw these into your trash. In addition to online theft, one of the common ways for identity thieves to get hold of your credit card accounts, business and personal information is to rummage around through your trash. The easiest way to prevent this problem from happening to you is to buy a paper shredder which comes into types: strip cut paper shredder and cross cut paper shredder.

Strip cut paper shredders shred paper into thin strips with sizes that vary in width from 1/8- to 1/2-inch. This type of shredder requires low maintenance and can generally handle a high volume of paper. However, documents shredded in a strip cut paper shredder will not be completely illegible. Although strip cut paper shredders may make your trash harder to read, it is still possible for crooks to reassemble the pieces and get the information written on the documents. If you need higher security, you could choose a cross cut paper shredder.

Strip cut paper shredders are relatively cheaper than cross cut paper shredders. Prices have dropped to less than a hundred dollars in recent years. You can fairly afford to buy a strip cut paper shredder that sits on top of a trash can and will shred five pieces of paper at a time.

Before you buy a strip cut paper shredder, make sure to test its cutting power. The manufacturer might claim that the strip cut paper shredder can cut files of maximum ten sheets at a time. Although you may not operate the strip cut paper shredder at maximum paper capacity at all times, you would not want it to jam whenever you actually load only three sheets of paper.
