Explanation:
-- or perhaps "security shredder". Since this "sikkerhetsmakulator" should take care not only of paper, but also of cd's, disks and files, the more general term "shredder" might be better her.

If you google these expressions you will find both cd and dvd shredders, file shredders and even "high security shredders".
