What We Do

Cirros is a leading provider of cloud-based print and document management solutions, offering secure, scalable, and highly available printing services tailored for enterprise and government organisations. Our flagship solution, is designed to eliminate traditional on-premises print infrastructure, enhance security, and streamline printing workflows while ensuring compliance with the strictest regulatory requirements.

Addressing Print Management Challenges

Traditional print environments face several challenges:

  • Security Risks: Legacy print systems introduce vulnerabilities such as PrintNightmare exploits, unauthorised document access, and weak print job encryption.
  • Infrastructure Costs: On-premises print servers require continuous maintenance, software updates, and security patches, adding to IT overhead.
  • Operational Complexity: Managing multiple printer brands, user authentication mechanisms, and compliance policies across different locations can be a challenge.
  • Scalability & Remote Work: Organisations need flexible printing solutions that support remote work, mobile access, and BYOD policies while ensuring zero-trust security.

Cirros Cloud solves these challenges by offering a fully cloud-native, secure, and scalable printing solution without requiring on-premises print servers. It enables driverless printing, seamless authentication, and advanced print security controls, making it the ideal choice for government, corporate, and multi-tenant environments.

GovPrint is specifically designed for government organisations. It provides them with a secure and efficient way to handle their printing needs. With GovPrint, employees can send print jobs to a central queue and retrieve them from any authorised printer, wherever they are, using secure methods like swipe cards or PIN codes.
