Print security has become a critical issue for business today. Due to an increased number of security threats, as well as legislation regarding privacy and data security, organisations need to focus on strategies for securing their printing functions.

According to Infosource, there were approximately 36 million printers and multifunction printing devices in use in Western Europe at the beginning of 2017. Considering most printing devices are also connected to a network, and are just as susceptible to malware and hacker attacks as computers, this equates to a significant threat to security.

Sensitive documents and information are regularly printed, and documents often remain unprotected in output trays long after print jobs have been completed. Printers may also store information that can be recalled or intercepted inappropriately, and have the potential to facilitate access to the wider network. They need to be managed and protected, just like the rest of the IT infrastructure.

This white paper from Brother explores why printers need to be managed and protected, just like the rest of the IT infrastructure.
