Is your company affected by the Xerox Scanning Bug?
More and more known enterprises reach out ot me these days, asking theirselves if they have a huge problem with their scanned documents. Others are already certain thay actually have a huge problem, some of them in security critical contexts. All have in common that they understandably are afraid of publicity. Affected companies normally have three goals:
- They want to solve the problem, if possible, retroactively
- They don't want publicity, enterprises with lots of employees don't even want the information published internally
- They want to stay eligible for compensations, i.e. they have to be careful not to destroy evidence by solving the problem.
At a closer look, these goals may contradict each other; even large and well-organized enterprises are prone for beginner's mistakes here. Thus, in general: Everyone who gets in touch with me requesting help to evaluate their own situation can be certain not to get his identity revealed by me. I acted this way across the entire xerox saga and I won't stop this way of acting now. My contact data can be found in the imprint.
