Then you realize conventional office equipment now incorporates significant technology advances and capabilities that make all documents an integrated part of a corporate network that also involves the Intranet and Internet. Government agencies, corporations and non-profits are increasingly transitioning from traditional stand-alone machines to devices that integrate these functions and link them to corporate networks, raising a whole new era of information management and security issues. Our development of features within Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE systems are designed to help prevent data loss, help protect against unwanted device infiltration and help keep information from being compromised.” —Dennis Amorosano, Sr. Director Solutions Marketing & Business Support, Canon U.S.A., Inc.
