Flexibility and security aren’t mutually exclusive

Remote workers shouldn’t put your an organisation at risk

With a rapidly growing work from home workforce, did you know printers may be the most vulnerable piece of equipment on the network today, yet they often receive less security attention or protection than any other device.

A global study focused on printing in the digital workplace, found that two thirds of organisations rank print among their top five security concerns. Legacy enterprise print infrastructures like print servers are inherently vulnerable to single attack vectors and expose print-job data every time it crosses the WAN.  Home printing devices present an even larger, less-manageable risk.

Organisations with a dynamic workforce of mobile employees printing from home, job sites or satellite offices can find it difficult to enforce secure printing policies. Every exploitable gap in the print infrastructure exposes the business to the danger of losing money, trade secrets and reputation.

These risks inherent to print servers are preventable. PrinterLogic is the serverless, true cloud-based print management solution for security-conscious organisations.

PrinterLogic establishes an individual direct-IP connection between the end-user’s device and printers so print jobs never leave the LAN.

  • Know who is printing what and where. Print administrators can track all network and local print activity. PrinterLogic records and reports on all these print jobs in real-time – from the name of the document printed, the identity of the print source device to the output printer to the standard output print management information like number of pages and ink usage.
  • Eliminate the risk of confidential or sensitive print jobs erroneously falling into the wrong hands. PrinterLogic enables safe remote printing through secure release printing – meaning print jobs are not printed automatically but are held until the user issues the “release” command. Users can print to a default queue and release the job at a printer of their choice.

PrinterLogic gives print administrators the power to secure the entire print environment through a single pane of glass while managing and monitoring it from a centralised management console.

Blue Label Technology Distribution (BLTD) is the South African exclusive distributor of PrinterLogic, the global leader in enterprise printer infrastructure management.
