■ Advanced Security Measures
The following security functions are provided for the scanner:
Login authentication can restrict user access.
Scanned data can be converted to password protected PDF files.
Scanned data can be protected.
Since the scanner is intended to be shared by multiple users, data privacy is an important
factor. The following security measures are used to protect the data against untoward
access:
Encryption
The scanned data is temporarily saved in the scanner while being e-mailed, faxed,
printed, or saved in a folder.
The data is always saved in the disk in an encrypted form in case the disk contents
are analyzed. Encrypted data will prevent the data from exposure.
Scanned data deletion
After the scanned data has been e-mailed, faxed, printed or saved, the temporary
data is deleted.
Check whether or not the scanned data has been e-mailed, faxed, printed, or
saved properly in the user log. If you find any errors in the user log, try scanning
again.
Even if an error interrupts this process, leaving some scanned data in the scanner,
this will automatically be deleted at the next start up.
Secure initialize
When initializing the data in the scanner, the free disk space is also overwritten
with random data with no meaning. When the user data store is cleared from the
scanner, the old cipher key is deleted and a new cipher key is generated.
This totally eliminates the possibility of access to any user data remaining in the
free disk space.
Input pathways for files from an external memory media and for files from outside via a
network are limited to a minimum by the scanner. Security patches will be provided as
needed to protect the scanner against virus attacks. Taking these measures enables the
scanner to be protected against virus infection.
