Today, phishing and ransomware are one of the most serious risks for businesses. Nearly every network, system, and device in your office is vulnerable to cybersecurity threats, including office printers and multifunction devices (Copiers).
A cyber attacker can use your office printer and Copier to impersonate you and share baseless information with your customers and employees, resulting in havoc. It can even result in your business information is at risk.
Read on to learn how to protect your office printers and Copiers from security threats.
All the data you process through Copier is stored in the hard drive of these devices. Since these hard drives are physical, they risk being stolen and used to gain confidential information.
By encrypting these hard drives, you can prevent your data from being compromised by the hands of unauthorized individuals.
Most advanced Copiers today come with password protection in the BIOS of the hard drive. So even if the hard drive ends up in the wrong hands, no one can access the information stored on it due to an alphanumeric password.
At innov8 we have qualified and trained technicians who can help you to find the best solution for your equipment.
Most Copiers come with secure printing capabilities, which can come in handy for businesses for document security. Secure printing keeps a user’s job on the server until it is manually released by them at the printing device.
This makes the Copiers more secure as the users have to be physically present to release print jobs by entering a pin or a password.
It eliminates any security risks by making sure that the right user is in control of the print job until it is finished.
A Copier allows multiple users to print documents. What’s more, it also comes with an administrative panel that allows everyone to protect the features and settings of the Copier with passwords. However, most organizations don’t change the default settings of their Copiers, which can result in data leakage.
With Paper Cut Software, the user can create restrictions. These restrictions allow businesses to keep an eye on the usage of their Copiers and Printers 24/7. It limits their risk of data breaches.
