This method is like strip shredding paper leaving you at much greater risk with huge amounts of data that can easily be harvested using some simple methods. You have strips but remain at very high risk as the integrity of the media structure (layers), remain valid and intact.

CD’s, DVD’s & Blu-ray discs that are cross shredded the same as the paper maintains the same very high security standard for this optical media. Cross Shredding optical media is so much more secure for destroying CD’s, DVD’s & Blu-ray discs because this method inflicts significant damage to the structure of the disc which delaminates during the cross cut shredding process, separating from and ripping the foil like media into very small and damaged particles.
