With cybercrime on the rise, experts are urging printing companies to evaluate their exposure to digital threats and take proactive steps to protect their operations. The print industry, often overlooked in cybersecurity discussions, has become an unexpected target for cyberattacks due to its reliance on connected systems and valuable customer data.
Industry professionals are advising print businesses to review their current cyber insurance policies, as many basic packages offer limited protection and support. Some policies lack key features like phishing simulations, employee training, or sufficient coverage in the event of a ransomware attack.
In addition to insurance, businesses are encouraged to adopt cybersecurity best practices such as the UK government’s Cyber Essentials certification and implement technologies like Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) to monitor and defend networked devices in real time.
As threats become more sophisticated, the message is clear: printers must take cybersecurity seriously, not only to protect client data but also to ensure business continuity in an increasingly digital world.
