Isn’t it ironic? For hundreds of years the only practical way to make information available was to print it. And now so much of our information is in digital form from its inception, “in the cloud” as they say. Yet what do many people do when they get access to it? Yup, they turn it into paper again! Personal printers and email are everywhere. Just click “Print” to contribute to the 115 billion sheets of paper used annually by personal computers.
The obsession with creating hardcopies is an issue of waste. Do we really need to print that much paper? It’s also an issue of control and security. So much personal information available, so fast and so easy to put it on a piece of paper – oftentimes without the OK of the owner.
That’s where Fortressware comes in – giving the owner the means to maintain control over the content, allowing or disallowing the recipient’s right to print the information on paper. Most of the time, people disallow printing because there really is no necessity to do otherwise; content can be viewed electronically anyway – it’s
the right thing to do for so many reasons!
So go green and be secure with Fortressware! Try it!
