ICSA Labs, a security products testing and certification firm, has announced a new certification process and program that will address threats of security risks in networked devices such as fax machines and printers.  This new program will include vendor certifications to allow consumers an option to be aware of those vendors who have taken the extra steps to have their products validated as claimed by an independent third party audit and testing process.

Joan Goodchild, a senior editor for the CSO magazine, has written a great article entitled “Is Your Printer Secure?” which talks about these same issues  – only in more detail.
