The Datanauts discuss securing print infrastructure with Michael Howard, Chief Security Advisor, and Jason O’Keeffe, Print Security Advisor, at HP. These guys are the real security deal in touch with how the hacking community leverages printers as jump off points to launch attacks.

HP has both best practice and product recommendations to secure a print infrastructure. If you don’t think much about your printers, you’ll think differently after this episode. Or put another way, replace the word “printer” with “IoT”. Does printer security seem like a big deal now? It should.

Enjoy this look at the lurking horror that is your printer network.
