Laptops, PCs, and printers are essential tools for modern businesses. Based on their multi-year lifespan, and the growing importance of device security down to the hardware and firmware level, the choice of endpoints is foundational for securing enterprise infrastructure.
But, new research from HP Wolf Security reveals that despite the growing awareness of the importance of device security – securing the hardware and firmware of PCs, laptops, printers, or other devices – it is often overlooked. Part of this stems from a lack of maturity, with 76 per cent of IT and Security Decision Makers (ITSDMs) in Canada saying their understanding of hardware and firmware security lags behind their knowledge of software security.
There are security challenges at every stage of the device lifecycle that can only be solved with an end-to-end approach to securing and managing hardware and firmware configuration.
