What's in your copier?

With increased security around company data, hackers are looking for alternative methods to acquire sensitive information. After factoring in firewalls, antivirus protection, email filters, and constant file backups, hacking computers can be a strenuous task.

This is where a multi-function copier comes in: a machine which scans, prints and copies all your valuable documents while also saving them to the built in hard drive. According to the Toronto Star, this seems to be a new objective for hackers, who can simply purchase old copiers online and access years of private corporate data.
