AUSTRALIA, 7 August 2023, FUJIFILM Business Innovation Australia today launched MPS Guardia™, its new, cyber security enhanced Managed Print Service in Australia. Designed and developed by FUJIFILM Business Innovation, the service provides the latest in print security for printing and document management and is available as part of FUJIFILM Business Innovation’s cloud or on-premises managed print services.
Said Stu Hammond, Product Marketing Manager at FUJIFILM Business Innovation: “Endpoint security and printer access vulnerability is a major concern for businesses today and MPS Guardia™ could be a game-changer for organisations in Australia. From the devices themselves to documents and data, it offers the latest protection against ever-increasing cyber threats such as unrestricted remote access via printers and devices to stored data on hard drives and, because of hybrid work environments, the expansion of networks, devices and entry points.
“MPS Guardia™ is more than a powerful security solution; it delivers seamless control, improved uptime and enhanced productivity in one trusted package providing organisations with the highest level of security and peace of mind for their printing and document management.
“We’re excited to launch MPS Guardia™. With increasingly sophisticated cyber-attacks, security is a big issue and we can now provide businesses with superior layered endpoint security to manage their printing and document management needs, without compromising their data.
“Organisations who use MPS Guardia™ can rest assured their data not only has our highest level of protection but they can receive, in real-time, up to 129 vulnerability monitoring alerts.
“A nifty feature, given an increased focus on sustainability, is the inbuilt Eco DX platform which gives the customer usage statistics, print habits, energy use and CO2 emissions benchmarked against other users.”
Ensuring total peace of mind, FUJIFILM Business Innovation’s range of devices is packed with products granted ISO 2700 and 9001 certification, the international standard customers can rely on for confidence in an IT product for their reliability, quality and trustworthiness.
Benefits of MPS Guardia™ include:
Print environment security: MPS Guardia™ operates without any back channel into a client’s firewall-protected environment giving superior device, document, and data security. All reporting and oversight are accessed via an external MPS Guardia™ portal, always preserving maximum security. Applying sophisticated encryption of all print jobs, customisable user authentication, and security settings ensures the organisation’s print environment complies with security policies and all relevant standards.
Visibility and Control: The MPS Guardia™ portal gives customers access to their individualised dashboard via an internet browser, allowing visibility of an organisation’s entire Multi-Functional Device (MFD) fleet status from anywhere on any device. From the portal, customers can manage devices across their network, monitor and report device faults, install updates and change security settings, and have complete visibility and control of reporting and billing. The portal also enables direct communication with the FUJIFILM Business Innovation (FUJIFILM BI) support team.
Predictive support: MPS Guardia™ delivers predictive support to ensure continuous performance and availability. It constantly communicates with every connected Fujifilm and selected third-party print device in your network, monitoring and using trend analysis to prevent service-impacting events or incidents.
Options to suit all organisations: MPS Guardia™ is not a one-size-fits-all solution. Organisations of different sizes and operating models have different monitoring needs, and MPS Guardia™ offers flexible options to suit any fleet with three levels of MPS Guardia™: Lite, Essentials and Enterprise Plus.
FUJIFILM Business Innovation is committed to partnering with organisations to help them power their work with digital solutions that deliver improvements to operational efficiencies and long-term cost reductions – cloud-ready, on-premises or both.
MPS Guardia™ is available now as part of FUJIFILM Business Innovation’s cloud or on-premise Managed Print Services. F
