01732 759725 10 BULLETIN New Symphion service closes security gap Symphion has launched its Print Fleet Security Certificate Deployment and Management Service, a fully managed, vendor-agnostic service that deploys and manages security certificates across large, complex print fleets, with no operational lift for customers. The service aims to eliminate a long standing blind spot in enterprise and healthcare security strategies, where printers, despite representing up to 30% of network endpoints are often excluded from identity based networking, zero trust frameworks and TLS only communication policies. Symphion’s new service automates and governs the full certificate lifecycle for printer endpoints across all makes, models, ages, firmware versions, and types of printers. The service discovers and classifies printer endpoints, evaluates their certificate posture, coordinates issuance with the customer’s PKI, deploys and validates certificates across required services, manages renewals and changes over time, and includes records and reporting. CEO Jim LaRoe said: “We designed our turnkey service to universally address the needs of CIOs and CISOs to affordably and effortlessly extend identity-based networking and modern encryption and management to all their printers.” The new offering is available as an add on to Symphion’s Print Fleet Cyber Security as a Service. www.symphion.com Konica Minolta is a top employer Konica Minolta has been awarded Top Employer status by the Top Employers Institute for a ninth consecutive year.

Kevin Drinkall, Senior Director, Marketing and GTM Strategy EMEA, Zyxel Networks said: “Thousands of MSP partners across EMEA are using Nebula as the central pillar of their managed services value proposition and as they grow and develop, being able to do more with the same resources is the key challenge they face. The enhanced capabilities of Nebula will enable MSPs to optimise efficiency, take more opportunities, and deliver higher levels of service.
