HP Printers Could Permit Hacking of IT Network Columbia Report Sayss
Posted by Lee Kirkby on Wed, Dec 7, 2011 @ 04:12 AM
In a recent Extremetech article a study performed by Columbia indicates that security issues with HP printer firmware could permit hackers to access IT networks containing the printer. The article sites that tens of millions of devices could be affected. There are claims that firmware changes through a hack could lead to fires. It appears that HP does not feel the report is accurate and has published its response. While the reports that hacked firmware changes could create a fire hazard are being challenged it seems some of the other reports regarding data integrity issues are getting more serious concern.

Bad IT Support, Multifunction Printer, Postage Machine Deals
Posted by Lee Kirkby on Tue, Jul 5, 2011 @ 07:07 AM
One of the things that bothers me the most when I am dealing with clients is when I learn about deals they have entered into that are just not good for the client. This occurs in all of the areas of our business, IT support, multifunction printers or postage machines.
