10. Security Measures Provided by this Printer Using Authentication and Managing Users This section explains how to improve this printer's security. The setting can be done only by the administrator. ❖ Enabling Authentication To control administrators’ and users’ access to the printer, perform adminis- trator authentication and user authentication using login user names and login passwords.
Security Measures Provided by this Printer Preventing Information Leaks ❖ Guarding Against Unauthorized Copying (Unauthorized Copy Prevention) Using the printer driver, mask and pattern can be embedded in the printed document. ❖ Guarding Against Unauthorized Copying (Data security for copying) Using the printer driver with the data security for the copying function, a doc- ument can be printed with an embedded pattern of hidden text.
Limiting and Controlling Access Limiting and Controlling Access ❖ Preventing Modification or Deletion of Stored Data Users with access permission to stored files can be specified. Permit selected users who have to access permissions to stored files to modify or delete the files.
Security Measures Provided by this Printer Enhanced Network Security ❖ Preventing Unauthorized Access Limit IP addresses or disable ports to prevent unauthorized access over the network and protect the address book, stored files, and default settings. ❖ Encrypting Transmitted Passwords Prevent login passwords, group passwords for PDF files, and IPP authentica- tion passwords being revealed by encrypting them for transmission.
Configuring SSL Encryption Configuring SSL Encryption When accessing the printer using a Web Image Monitor or IPP, encrypted com- munication can be established using SSL. When accessing the printer using an application such as SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin, encrypted communication can be established using SNMPv3 or SSL. To protect data from interception, analysis, and tampering, install a server certifi- cate in the printer, negotiate a secure connection, and encrypt transmitted data.
Page 328
Security Measures Provided by this Printer The encrypted shared key is decrypted in the machine using private key.
