Section 2 — Device Security

When the Access Management System has been enabled, users must log in to the device using SSO user authentication. Access Management System supports authentication through local device authentication as well as Active Directory using SSO-H*, which includes support for Kerberos Authentication. Once a user logs into the device with their user name and password, the device can determine which roles are assigned to that particular user. Restrictions are applied based on the assigned roles. If an entire function is restricted, it will appear grayed out to the user after authentication.

Function Level Authentication

Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE systems offer the ability to limit the use of specific functions by authorized users by requiring authentication to use sensitive functions with Function Level Authentication. Function Level Authentication is a part of Access Management System and works with SSO-H for authentication. It enables administrators to choose precisely which functions are permitted by walk-up and network users without entering credentials versus the ones that require a user to login. For example, administrators may choose to allow all users to make black-and-white copies while prompting users to login if they choose to output color or use the Scan and Send function.

Scan and Send Security

On devices that have Scan and Send enabled, certain information such as fax numbers and e-mail addresses may be considered confidential and sensitive. For these devices, there are additional security features to prevent confidential information from being accessed.

Address Book Password

Administrative and individual passwords can be set for Address Book Management functions. A system administrator can define the specific Address Book data that can be viewed by users, effectively masking private details. This password may be set separately so individuals other than the System Manager can administer the Address Book.

By setting a password for an Address Book, the ability to Store, Edit, or Erase individual and group e-mail addresses in the Address Book is restricted. Therefore, only individuals with the correct password for an Address Book will be able to make modifications.

This same password is also used for the Address Book Import/Export function through the Remote UI utility.

*Requires imageWARE Enterprise Management Console and the Access Management System Plug-In when authenticating through Active Directory.

Paper Shredder specifications

Canon has established a strong reputation for producing reliable and efficient office equipment, and their range of paper shredders is no exception. Designed to cater to both personal and professional use, Canon paper shredders combine advanced technology with user-friendly features to ensure optimal performance and security.

One of the standout characteristics of Canon paper shredders is their high-security shredding capabilities. Many models offer cross-cut or micro-cut shredding, which transforms documents into tiny particles that make it nearly impossible for unauthorized individuals to reconstruct sensitive information. This is particularly important in today's digital age, where data breaches and identity theft are of significant concern.

Another key feature is the processing speed of Canon paper shredders. With rapid sheet capacity, users can quickly shred large volumes of documents, making these shredders a valuable asset in busy office environments. Their durable motor ensures consistent performance without overheating, even during extended use.

Innovation is also at the forefront of Canon’s technology. Many shredders are equipped with advanced jam-proof systems, which detect potential jams in real-time and automatically reverse the shredding process to prevent damage. This ensures smooth operation and reduces downtime due to maintenance issues.

Moreover, Canon paper shredders offer a variety of convenience features tailored to enhance user experience. Many models come with large, easy-to-empty waste bins, allowing for fewer interruptions during the shredding process. Some even feature LED indicators that alert users when the bin is full or when shredding is in progress.

Portability is another important aspect, with several Canon models designed to be compact and lightweight. This allows users to easily transport the shredder between home and office settings.

Lastly, energy efficiency is a priority in Canon’s design process. Many shredders come equipped with automatic shut-off functions that engage after periods of inactivity, helping to conserve power and reduce energy costs.

In summary, Canon paper shredders are characterized by their high-security shredding capabilities, fast processing speeds, innovative technologies to prevent jams, convenient design features, portability, and energy efficiency. Ideal for maintaining confidentiality and organization in both personal and professional settings, Canon paper shredders continue to set a high standard in the shredding industry.
