Despite cyber security breaches dominating the headlines, 66% of businesses surveyed in a recent independent security report ranked print in the top 5 risks to security within their organization. When you consider the significant personal data and/or confidential information contained within most printed documents, it is not surprising. Often organizations invest considerably in enterprise cyber security solutions that focus on monitoring and protecting digital data, but overlook the importance of having a print related Data Loss Prevention (DLP) strategy in place to protect their paper-based processes. According to the latest Quocirca security report, 91% of businesses surveyed confirmed that print is an important part of their business process – consequently print security should not be overlooked.
