In South Africa’s public sector, document integrity is something that underpins public trust. At Lebone Litho, security printing services are focused on safeguarding national exams and official documents, with zero tolerance for breaches. Every certificate, ballot or ID we produce carries national stability on its shoulders.
How We Ensure Confidentiality When Printing or Handling Sensitive Documents
It all begins in our high-security facility. We conduct strict background checks on all staff members and grant biometric access control only to vetted and authorised personnel. 24/7 surveillance and on-site security officers constantly guard raw materials, including security paper and specialised inks.
Every production stage is documented for full traceability, with controlled waste disposal (shredding/incineration), encrypted digital files and role-based access controls to prevent information from reaching the wrong eyes. Continuous risk assessments identify threats, such as theft or forgery, and ensure that immediate mitigation plans are in place.
What Are The 4 Levels of Security Features?
Standard, industry-standard multidimensional defence layers are integrated across the security forms printing division, using serialisation and RFID tracking to ensure real-time traceability. These layers follow international industry standards:
- Level 1 Overt: Easily identifiable features like watermarks and holograms on exam covers
- Level 2 Covert: UV inks detectable by inspectors that glow under a UV blacklight.
- Level 3 Forensic: Microtext and chemical-reactive features for High-level inspection and verification that scanner-proofs official docs.
- Level 4 Proprietary: Custom RFID manufacturer secrets known only to the producer.
Real-Time Document Tracking From Press to Packaging
Using serialisation and RFID, we can track and trace documentation in real time on our Heidelberg Speedmaster presses.
Each sheet is assigned a unique digital ID during platemaking. As these documents move through the in-house bindery, they are scanned and logged to verify that every piece of paper is accounted for before they are sealed in tamper-evident packaging.
What Are 5 Ways Confidential Information is Protected?
By maintaining a closed-loop system with mandated annual audits, we adhere to the PrintSecure accreditation. Our security printing services provide the public sector with absolute peace of mind by implementing:
- Role-based access limits to prevent unauthorised data exposure.
- Encrypted files throughout the digital-to-print workflow to ensure data fidelity.
- Strict NDAs for all staff and contractors.
- Tamper-evident packaging to secure documents during transport.
- In-house bindery to ensure that finishing processes remain within our secure perimeter.
