The copiers and multifunction printers in your office, if left unsecured, can be one of the biggest threats to the security of your data. In most offices, copiers and printers see the majority of files and documents that are stored in one fashion or another. This could be new hire paperwork that is copied, or client materials being printed on a multifunction printer. While this may seem like normal, everyday harmless activities, in reality you are setting yourself up for disaster by not taking the proper security precautions.
