These problems are well known and well documented. So if you continue to use fax machines and your faxed data becomes the centre of a data breach, the governing authorities in charge of setting penalties aren&#8217;t going to look favourably on you, given you are using a platform that is notoriously bad for data protection.<\/p><p>Online fax can support the argument that you\u2019re investing in better options to secure your data. The platform takes faxing, enables its continuation while introducing new and essential measures to better protect the information involved in transmission. But how is online fax going to appease data protection lawmakers, and how does it help reduce the chance of breaches in the first place?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-22ff3c9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"22ff3c9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Is Online Fax Secure?

You can\u2019t easily protect a paper file from viewers who shouldn\u2019t see the file \u2014 unless you lock the document in a secure safe. Draws, desks, filing cabinets\u2014 they\u2019re all too easily accessed by other individuals. That\u2019s not even mentioning the trouble of receiving documents in the first place. When a machine receives a document, it has the potential to be viewed by anyone who has access to the machine. Online fax is different. It protects fax behind access control systems and logins. To see a fax, you need to have appropriate permissions. So your fax documents are no longer at risk of being viewed by those who shouldn\u2019t see them.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Data Encryption<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Analogue fax transmissions cannot be encrypted. This makes them vulnerable to local interception as anyone who can access the phone line used to send them can steal the data without much trouble. Online fax is very different. eFax technology uses the internet to send faxes, meaning the data is encrypted with advanced TLS level protocols. This sort of security makes it much, much harder for would-be thieves to access data within fax documents.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Digital Contacts<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 It may come as a surprise, but missent information over fax machines is one of the most common\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.itgovernance.co.uk\/blog\/4-of-the-5-top-causes-of-data-breaches-are-because-of-human-or-process-error\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">causes of data breaches<\/a>. Misdialing remains a massive problem, both due to accidentally hitting the wrong digit and mixing up fax numbers. Online faxing, however, removes this problem. Contacts are saved to your account, with pre-approved and assigned fax numbers. This measure makes it incredibly difficult to accidentally send your fax to the wrong person or business.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Paperless Documents<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Paper documents are notorious security risks. They are prone to be misplaced, forgotten or stolen. This creates all sorts of problematic scenarios for your business. However, all this can be done away with. Online fax removes the need for paper documents, thus eliminating the dangers posed by the format.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-398999f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"398999f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How to Introduce Online Solutions to Secure Your Fax<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4492a49 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4492a49\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Given the importance of faxing to business, and the importance of good data security, you\u2019ll want to consider moving your fax solutions over to online services as soon as possible.
