By electing to deploy a scanning solution, you recognize the unique return on
investment an integrated scanning solution can offer. You understand that the
office copier has emerged as a networked device with many functions: copy,
print, fax, and scan. The benefits of scanning are not as obvious as copy, print,
and fax, but can have the greatest impact on productivity by enabling you to
integrate paper into your digital enterprise applications. Not only will your
company realize an immediate increase in productivity but, you will also directly,
positively impact your bottom line.

eCopy ™ document imaging solutions integrate paper documents with your existing business applications — e-mail, fax, document management systems, and workflow management applications — and provide key features that make eCopy products the most secure document integration solutions available today.

eCopy solutions link office devices to mission-critical business applications. Whenever shared office scanners and copiers connect to your network, security is a prime concern. Additionally, since paper-based documents frequently contain information that is confidential or sensitive in nature, the privacy of scanned documents must be assured. At the same time, if organizations are to realize the huge cost savings that electronic document imaging makes possible, employees must readily adopt the technology-based process. It must be simple and easy to use—very easy to use. Our solutions work with standard digital copiers and office scanners, and provide a simple touch-screen interface that makes scanning as easy as copying. continue reading...

Today’s sophisticated network copiers or multifunctional products (MFPs),integrate copier, scanner, printer and facsimile functionality into a single platform, with the added capability of network-based document capture, storage and distribution. A primary on-ramp to the government’s network, these devices can convert hardcopy documents into easily shared digital files.

As a centralized network document processing hub, MFPs can also pose a potential risk to mission-critical information and applications. Theft or redirection of data is a danger when anonymous walk-up usage is possible. With an expanding MFP installed base deploying safeguards that ensure that only authorized users gain access to the device is not only a best practices imperative, but a federal mandate. continue reading...

“Most C-level executives still view security as an operational issue, not a strategic issue, according to ‘Navigating Risk: The Business Case for Security.’”
