User Data Encryption; User Information Database - Xerox WorkCentre 5755 System Administrator Manual

User Data Encryption

User Data Encryption ensures all data or job-sensitive data on the device's hard drive is protected.
User Data Encryption is automatically enabled on the device and no further configuration is required
by the administrator.
When enabled, the data on the hard drive will not be meaningful when the hard drive has been
separated from the device it was originally installed on.
If the hard disk is removed from the device then the encrypted data remains protected because the
encryption key is not stored on the hard drive.
To Disable User Data Encryption
Note: To configure this feature or these settings access the Properties tab as a System
Administrator. For details, refer to
1. From the Properties tab, click on the [Security] link.
2. Select [User Data Encryption] in the directory tree.
3. In the [User Data Encryption Enablement] area, select [Disabled].
4. Click on the [Apply] button.
Note: Changing the User Data Encryption setting will reboot the Network Controller. This may
result in a loss of user data and will interrupt or delete current jobs on the device.

User Information Database

User Information Database is a local database that contains user data for access by Authentication
and basic Authorization.
The User Information Database allows you to add new users to the database. User information can be
edited and deleted from the database.
Password Settings allow you to change password rules.
Note: If the Password rules are changed, old passwords are NOT AFFECTED by the new rules.
If users are created locally on the device using the User Information Database, those users will
be authenticated only if the Authentication Configuration method is set to "Locally on the
Device". If the authentication method is switched to "Remotely on the Network", those users will
not be authenticated unless their credentials are also accessible remotely. For further information
on Authentication Configuration, refer to
To Add a New User to the Database
