About this listen

Jonathan Armstrong remains on assignment. Today, Tom Fox visits with fellow Texan Jim LaRoe, CEO of Symphion, to discuss data privacy, data protection, and compliance related to printer security in one of the most interesting podcasts Tom has done in some time. Jim provides insight into how 20-30% of network endpoints are printers, and alarmingly, 99% of these are unprotected. Printers, despite being integral to business functions, are typically left vulnerable, making them prime targets for sophisticated phishing and cyber-attacks. Jim shares his journey from a trial lawyer to founding Symphion in 1999 and explains Symphion’s groundbreaking work in developing comprehensive security software for printers. Jim highlights the importance of a culture of compliance in managing endpoint security and the multifaceted challenges that come with securing printers. He emphasizes the collaborative effort needed among GRC compliance teams, IT, and supply chain departments to manage printer security effectively, and offers actionable steps for businesses to mitigate these risks.
