Helping Customers Shut Down Malware Attacks by Raising the Bar on Embedded Printer Security

HP is the front-line partner to stay a step ahead of an increasingly challenging threat landscape, delivering trusted, resilient security that starts with endpoint devices. As the industry leader, the company engineers the world's most secure printers1, that are secure by design, with powerful layers of protection for the device, data and documents to help organizations defend their network and company data.

At HP Reinvent, HP is launching HP Connection Inspector, a new intelligent embedded security feature created by HP Labs, to help printers stay one step ahead of malware attacks with advanced self-healing capabilities. The technology is unique in that it can inspect outbound network connections typically abused by malware, determine what is normal and then stop suspicious activity. If compromised, it will automatically trigger a reboot to initiate HP Sure Start self-healing procedures, all without IT intervention.

First in a series of new HP Labs security analytics innovations, partners can help customers upgrade their fleet with resilient HP Enterprise printers that feature the latest HP security technologies such as HP Connection Inspector, available via a FutureSmart firmware update later this year2.

Universal Business Printing with HP Roam Creates New Service and Revenue Opportunities

The workplace today is collaborative, flexible, project-oriented, and unbounded by time or geography. Across businesses large and small, mobility is transforming the workplace. Printing has not evolved to keep up with this new reality, and today it is still too difficult to print away from your desk, while working from other locations or from a mobile device.

HP Roam is a new universal business printing experience that will reshape how innovative businesses print. It enables mobile professionals to print anytime from any location and any device, and retrieve their prints securely from a growing set of print locations at the office, at home or at public sites. Print jobs can be submitted to the cloud as content is being consumed or created and picked up at the location of choice without having to worry about device to printer compatibility or connectivity. In addition, GPS and Bluetooth technologies allow for fast auto-discovery of printers while authentication ensures a protected, secure release of prints.

Key HP Roam features:

One universal print experience - Replacing traditional drivers and mobile apps, users can print from any of their devices (mobile or desktop), they just select HP Roam instead of a specific printer

Personal print queue-Securely add to and store print jobs in the cloud, retrievable at any time

Auto-discovery - When users come within 20 feet of any HP Roam-enabled printer (in their office or their client's office), the mobile app will send a notification reminder to release the prints in their cloud queue. If away from the office, the app will show a map with nearby public print locations including thousands of printers at hotels, libraries and airports

Secure release via authentication- Select the items to be printed, verify identity using a mobile device, personal pin or ID card to select and release the prints securely

HP Roam helps simplify the print experience for customers while creating new service and revenue opportunities for partners. Resellers can expand and differentiate their managed print services to leverage the cloud, using a simple deployment that minimizes staff training and service costs.

Offered first as a business print solution, HP Roam will be available in spring 2018.
