Complete your plan. Help protect your organization.
Screens are everywhere. So is the information displayed on them.
Many information technology data security plans lack measures to prevent visual hacking. IT managers implement forms of digital protection to improve cyber security such as antivirus software, authentication, encryption and firewalls. But what about the data displayed on a laptop, monitor or tablet screen? Sensitive information – legal documents, financial statements, passwords and more – are all vulnerable. And with the rise of remote and hybrid work, the risks of visual hacking are greater than ever.
3M™ Privacy Filters are a low cost visual privacy solution that can help you complete your data security plan. Microlouver and nanolouver technology “blacks out” the screen at a certain viewing angle, deterring visual hackers while providing high brightness and clarity for intended users. When paired with 3M™ COMPLY™ Privacy Filter Attach Solutions, your employees can easily switch between screen shielding or sharing.
More employees than ever are working remotely, and the risks of visual hacking are clear. Clear enough that visual privacy and privacy screens are essential to a comprehensive, enterprise-level data security solution.
