PHILOSOPHY

The katana is the sword used by Japanese Samurai warriors, guards close to the emperor who embodied honour, ethics, discipline, courage and responsibility. The katana was a blade created in the purest tradition on which the security of the Japanese empire depended.

Similar to those of the Samurai, the values of Katana SA are based on ethics, discipline, rigour and respect for the environment, principles that are applied at all times during the destruction of your confidential documents.

Katana SA is a division of Secur'Archiv, a leader in Switzerland for more than 15 years in the conservation and management of archives and computer records, with more than 1500 client firms in very varied fields such as banking, insurance, multinationals, legal practices and different industries. Katana SA was set up to meet growing demand for the protection and destruction of confidential documents.

With offices in Geneva and Zurich, Katana can offer its clients a consistent service throughout Swiss territory.

Wherever data is used and processed, the illicit disclosure of information can have potential consequences that are difficult to evaluate. Protecting the process of document disposal and destruction is a matter of absolute trust; it must be assigned to competent professionals with an impeccable reputation. As a leader in the mobile shredding of confidential documents, Katana offers a well designed range of services which take into account all requirements of a market no less sensitive than the transportation of cash and valuables.

The protection of confidential information is an imperative for every company. However, when it comes to shredding confidential information such as client lists, R&D reports or data concerning a company’s human resources, security and confidentiality are often neglected. It is here that Katana offers a unique service ensuring real protection.

Our confidentiality advisers will make a point of visiting you to carry out an audit of your existing system. During a second visit, a confidentiality report will be submitted to you. On the basis of this report, we will be able to evaluate your requirements and eradicate weaknesses, decide on the number of secure containers to be put in place and determine the frequency of visits.
