McAfee partnership delivers enhanced security across imageRUNNER ADVANCE devices

Security is recognised as a top priority for today's businesses. As devices grow ever more advanced, hackers and the threats they pose also become more sophisticated. Staying one step ahead is vital, but it can be tricky.

On 31 July 2019 Canon announced that it had partnered with McAfee, acknowledged to be the world's largest dedicated security technology company, to ensure customers benefit from the very best in print security. Rolled out across the entire imageRUNNER ADVANCE series devices will be protected and, via 6-monthly updates to its McAfee Embedded Control Software, will remained protected as threats evolve.

Alternative's Sales Director Dave Allen commented on the news,

"We're delighted by this news and know our customers will be too. Malware, viruses and breaches, are becoming increasingly common and having this increased security functionality will provide reassurance that networks, devices and data are as water-tight as they can be."
