Certified Secure 

A Documented Badge of Security for Your Entire Print Environment. 

Visual Edge IT Certified Secure ensures every qualifying imaging device is installed, configured, and hardened to an approved security standard. Included on all new qualifying installs. 

 

New Imaging Device Deployments 

Security Hardened by Default 

Every qualifying device is hardened at installation. No additional steps required. 

Certified Secure Badge 

Visible Proof of Standard 

A physical badge on the device and a documentation package for audit and compliance. 

How Certified Secure Works in Your Print Environment

Certified Secure applies a documented hardening checklist to every qualifying device at the time of installation. The process is built into standard deployment: no separate project, no added complexity, no extra steps for you to complete. 

What Gets Hardened 

Device-Level Security Configuration 

The Certified Secure checklist covers firmware settings, access controls, network configuration, and data protection settings: the controls that determine how securely the device operates on your network from the moment it is installed.

Who Does the Work 

Visual Edge IT Handles Everything  

Your team provides access. Visual Edge IT applies the hardening checklist, affixes the Certified Secure badge to the device, and delivers your documentation package. No internal security expertise required. 

What You Receive  

Badge and Documentation Package  

Every Certified Secure device receives a physical badge and a documentation package recording which standards were applied, to which devices, and when. Designed for audit, compliance, and cyber insurance review. 

Ongoing Security 

Foundation for Broader Protection  

Certified Secure is the starting point. Visual Edge IT offers expanded security monitoring, managed security services, and endpoint protection as natural next steps for organizations that want deeper coverage. 

 
 

Your Current Devices Can Be Certified, Too  

Your organization does not need to wait for a hardware refresh to establish a consistent security standard across your print environment. Any existing qualifying device can be brought up to Certified Secure standard. 

The same hardening checklist. The same documentation. The same badge.  

Applied to the devices you already have.  

$250 per existing device. No replacement required

  • No replacement needed -- works on your current equipment 

 

Why Certified Secure 

Multifunction devices connect to your network, process sensitive documents, and store data in memory. Most ship with default settings that were never designed with security in mind. Certified Secure changes that.  

Security Hardened by Default 

All new qualifying installations are configured according to the Visual Edge IT hardening checklist. Security is the baseline, not an optional add-on.

Visible Proof for Auditors and Leadership 

The Certified Secure badge is a physical identifier on the device. The documentation package provides written evidence of what was hardened, when, and to what standard.

Consistent Standards Across Every Deployment 

A documented checklist applied consistently across every device removes variability and eliminates configuration gaps between locations and technicians. 

Reduces Overlooked Attack Surface 

Print infrastructure is rarely included in standard endpoint security programs. Certified Secure closes that gap by applying the same rigor to multifunction printers that organizations apply to laptops and servers. 

Supports Compliance and Cyber Insurance 

Documentation is formatted to support audits, regulatory inquiries, and cyber insurance questionnaires across healthcare, legal, financial services, education, and government. 

Backed by a Total Technology Partner 

Print, IT, managed security, and backup under one roof: one relationship, one bill, one accountable partner. The Power of One. 

Why Visual Edge IT 

Certified Secure is exclusive to Visual Edge IT. It is not a third-party certification or a bolt-on service. It is a deployment standard built into every printer installation by our own team. 

Security Hardened at Deployment 

Hardening is applied at installation – not months later as an afterthought. Printers arrive at your site already configured to an approved security standard.  

Physical Badge, Written Documentation 

The Certified Secure badge is applied to every printer. The documentation package is in your records. Both are tangible proof points that do not exist with standard deployments from other providers.  

Applies to New and Existing Devices 

Certified Secure is not limited to new hardware. Any qualifying existing device can be brought up to the same standard – allowing organizations to establish consistency across their entire fleet. 

National Coverage  

With fully stocked service vans, and remote assistance, Visual Edge IT delivers and applies Certified Secure wherever your organization operates, nationwide. 

Part of a Full Security Portfolio  

Certified Secure is the first step. Visual Edge IT also offers managed security, endpoint protection, SOC-backed MDR, vCISO advisory, and backup and DR: under one roof, one bill. 

39 Years of Technology Experience 

Visual Edge IT has served businesses across the United States for nearly four decades. Modernize. Operate. Secure.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Does Certified Secure replace our existing cybersecurity tools?  

No. Certified Secure is device-level hardening applied at deployment. It is not a replacement for endpoint detection, managed security services, or any other cybersecurity platform. It is the device security baseline that complements those tools.  

What exactly does the hardening process cover?  

The Visual Edge IT hardening checklist covers firmware settings, access controls, network configuration, and data protection settings. The specific checklist is documented and provided at installation.  

What is the Certified Secure badge?  

The badge is a physical identifier affixed to the device after hardening is complete. It signifies that the device has been configured according to the Visual Edge IT hardening checklist.  

Can our current devices become Certified Secure?  

Yes. Any existing qualifying printer or copier can be brought up to Certified Secure standards. No replacement is required. The same checklist, same badge, and same documentation apply. 

Does Certified Secure help with cyber insurance applications? 

The documentation package is formatted to support audit, compliance, and cyber insurance review. It records what was hardened, when, and to what standard – the kind of documented evidence insurers increasingly ask for. 

Is Certified Secure available for all device brands?  

Certified Secure applies to qualifying multifunction devices deployed by Visual Edge IT. Contact our team to confirm eligibility for specific device models or your existing fleet.
