Fax (short for facsimile, from Latin fac simile, "make similar", i.e. "make a copy") is a telecommunications technology used to transfer copies (facsimiles) of documents, especially using affordable devices operating over the telephone network. In spite of the growth in e-mail usage, fax is still a common method to transmit and receive information.
Conventional fax operations have the following limitations:
- Only protected by physical forms of security
- Only a single copy is generated at a single location, thus making it easy to loose information
- Can only utilise a single dedicated line for both sending and receiving
- Prints spam or unsolicited faxes which costs paper and fax toner
- No audit trail of fax operations
