Printing services and secure storage
Secure Print
Securing documents against fraud and meeting strict print standards for confidential items.
The print industry continues to experience a period of unprecedented change as more organisations move to a ‘paper-less’ environment and the cost of raw materials has put severe pressure on the printed document.
However, for those who want to retain a physical tangible item, the printed document remains a vital and important element in an organisation’s processes. The need to protect this output from fraud though means introducing ever more sophisticated secure features to ensure that the printed document stays one step ahead of the fraudsters.
Internal departments that have been responsible for print production can be costly to an organisation’s overall expense. This is evident in running costs, resources and valuable operating space. However, by outsourcing print, businesses can reap the benefit of reduced expenditure and freeing up both resource and space.
