Can you use Snipping Tool to securely redact a PDF document by

1. ) first inserting a snip of the original PDF into a Word document,

2.) then inserting a filled shape over the information you want to redact,

3. ) then saving the Word file as a new PDF?

No, that's not secure at all. All the original info can be exposed in seconds. Use the Redaction tool in Acrobat Pro, nothing else.
