Ricoh strengthens supply chain security for office MFPs and printers with ISO/IEC 20243 Self-Assessed conformance
TOKYO, November 9, 2026 – Ricoh announced today that its office multifunction printers (MFPs) and printers have demonstrated conformance with ISO/IEC 20243, an international standard designed to mitigate the risks of maliciously tainted and counterfeit products in the technology supply chain. This conformance, achieved under the Self-Assessed tier of The Open Group Open Trusted Technology Provider™ Standard (O-TTPS) Certification Program, reflects Ricoh's ongoing efforts to strengthen supply chain security and product integrity in the product lifecycle.
As technology supply chains become increasingly complex, managing security risks in the product lifecycle has become increasingly important. To demonstrate conformance, Ricoh assessed its development and procurement processes against the applicable O-TTPS requirements and strengthened relevant practices and measures. In addition to strengthening supply chain management, Ricoh strengthened its secure engineering practices across software, firmware and hardware development. These practices include configuration management, threat and vulnerability analysis, quality assurance, and ongoing security maintenance throughout the product lifecycle, helping to maintain product quality, integrity and security from design through post-deployment vulnerability management.
Together, these measures help Ricoh identify and manage potential security and supply chain risks. For customers and business partners, these efforts help deliver:
- Enhanced supply chain security by reducing risks associated with maliciously tainted or counterfeit components and software.
- Greater confidence in product security through strengthened security practices in the product lifecycle.
- More informed product evaluation and selection through greater transparency into Ricoh's approach to product and supply chain security.
Ricoh will continue to evolve its security practices to meet the changing needs of customers and partners worldwide.
