Ricoh Aficio Common Security Features Guide I N T R O D U C T I O N Information is an Asset Did you know that 90% of all corporate espionage is conducted by someone within the organization, a trusted employee in or near a position of power with seemingly impeccable credentials?

Page 7: Risk Levels
Risk Levels Every company is different and their exposure to all types of security threats will vary based on the nature of their business and the sensitivity of the information that is processed. Further, the location and configuration of a specific device will also impact the appropriate level of security. Non-networked devices, for example, may only require local (internal) user authentication whereas networked peripherals will demand more robust login (external) controls. - Page 8 How can your customers be sure? What if the device is to be relocated elsewhere in the company, or returned at end-of-lease? To address these and other concerns, Ricoh equips its products with an array of standard and optional features to limit device access, track usage, and protect confidential information stored in memory.
