• Security Policy Function – The security policy function is used to collectively
configure the security-related settings into one security policy. These settings
can be protected by a dedicated password to achieve a high-level of security.
An Administrator can implement policy settings that comply with the security
policies of his/her company in the devices under his/her charge to restrict
people, other than the Administrator and end users, from using functions that
do not comply with the policies, or from changing the setting values.
The information configured in the security policy can be exported or imported
by using the DCM function or the iWEMC DCM Plug-In, and can be copied to
multiple devices.
IMPORTANT
• Only an Administrator, who knows the security password, can disable the
Security function or Service Mode password.
• Proper management and workflows are necessary for users who use the
Security Policy function, and for machines that support this function.
• If an Administrator must log on to access the machine, it is necessary to notify
the service technicians and the Call Center of support of these security
policies, in case the Administrators or users forget their passwords.
Therefore, a service technician must make an appointment with the
Administrator, before a visit, so that the Security function can be disabled. In
addition, it is important to verify and establish a system to issue license keys.
• Users can also lock the Service Mode of the machine, and the Administrator
must release it with their password.
• The passwords of the Administrator can be cleared from the Service Mode.
However, if the Security Policy is set to restrict access to the Service Mode,
then the Service Technician cannot clear passwords from the Service Mode.
If the Administrator forgot his/her password, an SSD clear (clears many
Settings/Registration settings and Service Mode settings) can be performed,
or the Administrator can request a new password license from a local
authorized Canon dealer. It is necessary to explain to the Administrator about
the risk of any security policy specified, and request to manage the
passwords.
