Network printer security

How aware are you of the risks associated with network printer security? Most companies underestimate the danger of intrusion into their systems through these devices. In many cases, printers and multifunction devices can be one of the most vulnerable components of a company's IT operations security. It is mistakenly believed that because printers have a firewall, company information is protected from intrusion.

Printers can allow access to private information contained in printed documents and scanned images. Malicious users can intercept print files or discover user credentials to gain access to other computer data and networked servers.

Printers still rank low on most companies' security issue lists, even though they should be at the top of the list like other endpoints.
