A typical document imaging system is creating four major vulnerabilities that substantially increase the potential for data theft and violations of information management regulations: Not encrypting the data while it's in motion.

I'm not here to sell you a system, I'm here to sell you an approach to a system. I'm telling you that if you're sitting on years old document scanning system, you're probably at risk, and it's time for you to look for a system. Get out your legal pad.
