With Canon, information security isn’t an afterthought. It connects everything we do, from hardware design through to end-of-life, helping you protect your critical information and ensure secure printing from day one.

Our secure by design philosophy

Rigorously tested solutions, continuous security patching with AI-driven threat detection, an expansive suite of services fit to meet the demands of the security landscape... we cover all parts of the document lifecycle, and maintain security throughout the life of our products, too.
