Encrypting Transmitted Passwords
We recommend you use one or more of the following security protocols: IPsec, SNMPv3, and SSL. Using
these protocols can enhance your machine's security by making login passwords harder to break. Also,
encrypt the login password for administrator authentication and user authentication.
Driver Encryption Key
Encrypt the password transmitted when specifying user authentication.
To encrypt the login password, specify the driver encryption key on the machine and on the TWAIN
driver installed in the user's computer.
Specifying a Driver Encryption Key
This can be specified by the network administrator. For details about logging in and logging out with
administrator authentication, see p.30 "Logging in Using Administrator Authentication" and p.32 "Logging
out Using Administrator Authentication".
