Secure your data and infrastructure, including your thermal printers!

Security risks are real, and attacks are getting increasingly frequent and sophisticated. No matter the size of your organisation. Endpoints are becoming popular targets—including networked thermal printers. Successful network security requires layers of protection.

When you integrate a new thermal printer you expect it to increase productivity, not introduce security vulnerabilities. Zebra helps you defend against security breaches with our Print DNA ecosystem, powered by Link-OS, featuring PrintSecure. Together, they give you the tools to easily configure your printers to use secure connections, assess potential vulnerabilities, block unauthorised access and control your data exchanges. Zebra is committed to securing your performance edge.
