The importance of secure printing Martin Ruda, group managing director at The TALL Group of Companies, talks about the importance of fraud prevention and the role secure printing plays in this.
providing secure cheque printing and use a variety of fraud prevention and detection processes. The recent addition of image survivable features (ISFs) onto the face of a cheque can greatly help with cheque fraud prevention. Such features enable the cheque data to be captured and encrypted within a unique coded number (UCN) or barcode that can be applied to the original paper cheque, thereby ensuring the validation of the item when the image is scanned within the image clearing system. Counterfeit items and fraudulently altered items can then be readily identified. We offer participating banks and their customers a range of ISFs dependent on the type, volume and value of cheques being produced. Our innovative patented UCN Plus® ISF provides an even more secure encrypted QR Code printed on the cheque at the time of infilling that captures data from the face of the cheque to provide additional cheque fraud prevention. Internal banking documents As part of our secure printing expertise we work with clients to print their ‘internal banking documents’, which support the movement of money from country to country and branch to branch. We provide internal banking documentation to major UK and international banks, shipping to global branch networks, and can offer the total management and storage of banking documentation whether cheques, credits or internal banking documentation from our secure, accredited facilities.

Today, secure printing is vital for organisations to ensure their documents are secure and that data breaches are avoided. Protecting vulnerable and sensitive documents is a growing concern, given the financial impact that fraudulent copies can have on a business and their customers. However, breaches in document security can have an even greater impact on an organisation in terms of reputational damage, which can be profound and long-lasting. It is also common: 66% of finance companies have experienced at least one print-related data breach and 75% of organisations have experienced cheque payment fraud. These figures are frightening, and with the increasing sophistication of cyber scammers organisations are right to be nervous. Because of the serious nature of print fraud, an increasing number of organisations are turning to secure printing to protect their interests.
