Fascinating article which outlines data and intelligence from the UK’s leading fraud prevention service, Cifas showing that criminals are increasingly using advanced AI to create fake identities and forge documents. Mike Haley, CEO of Cifas, is quoted as saying : “Fraud is a national emergency – and AI has supercharged the threat, making it more sophisticated and harder to detect. No sector, business, or individual is immune.” At SWSC we deliver bespoke, dynamic and innovative solutions, that are designed to make the world a safer place, helping to protect against these criminal elements. We keep up to date with the latest fraud and counterfeit trends, and in response we design products to combat future attacks and address the ever-improving technological techniques used by ‘bad actors’. Please get in touch if you feel we could help your organisation. #secureprinting #fraud #brandprotection #AIfraud https://lnkd.in/eE3QAstb

We are delighted to announce that we have successfully transitioned our Information Security Management system to the new ISO27001:2022 standard. Our audit was conducted by Amtivo who assessed our capabilities in terms of confidentiality assurance, secure data exchange, regulatory compliance, data protection, internal processes and cultural security. ISO 27001 is the world’s best-known standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). It provides a systematic and comprehensive approach to managing and protecting sensitive information within an organisation. Completing the audit successfully demonstrates our capability to identify potential security threats and implement robust measures to mitigate risks. Peter Thomas, our Managing Director, said: “The ISO 27001 standard provides a structured framework for managing information security risks in SWSC, thereby enhancing our resilience. It demonstrates our commitment to data protection, which strengthens customer trust and loyalty.” #secureprinting #robust #resilience

From paper to digital: Bridging the evolution in Secure Identity Solutions   As a globally recognised provider of high-security printing and identity management solutions we constantly strive to understand our customers’ requirements and match them with innovative secure print and technological solutions. Many of our products still rely on paper-based formats, however, the shift toward mobile digital wallets and online verification is accelerating in some areas, and we’re proud to be at the forefront of that evolution.    Currently the world is straddling both the physical and the digital, with different regions at different stages, and we need solutions for both as we continue to support customers wherever they are in this global transition.   #DigitalTransformation #SecurityPrinting #IdentitySolutions #Innovation #SWSC #SmurfitWestrock #DigitalIdentity #FutureReady #SecureSolutions

Did you know we have an office in Africa? As part of our growth strategy in North Africa, we opened an office just outside #Rabat, Morocco last year. We recognised that a local presence was key to expanding our network of agents and strengthening existing relationships with governments and private organisations in the region.   Through our new base, we’re proud to collaborate with local businesses, offering consultancy, pre-press design, and artwork (both physical and digital). Our goal is to empower local print companies by supporting them with the expertise required for secure print production; and continue to grow our network of agents.   From excise stamps to education certificates, motor tax documents to fraud prevention, we deliver end-to-end solutions, combining traditional and digital print with specialist security features.   Brendan Lynch, Sales Director at SKSC, commented: “Our office in Rabat has enabled us to continue to grow in this complex market, supporting the ongoing development of secure printing in the region.”   #AfricaExpansion #SecurityPrinting #DigitalTransformation #SWSC #PrintInnovation #Rabat #NorthAfricaGrowth
