Section 5 – Security Monitoring & Management Tools

Canon provides a number of tools to help organizations enforce their internal company policies and meet regulatory requirements. Whether a single imageRUNNER ADVANCE system is deployed, or a fleet of them, these solutions provide the ability to audit usage and limit access to features and functions enterprise-wide—at the group and user-level.

5.1 – imageWARE Enterprise Management Console

imageWARE Enterprise Management Console (EMC) is a highly scalable web-based management utility for administrators that delivers a streamlined, centralized point of control for all devices installed across enterprises. The software makes it easier for organizations to securely manage one or more imageRUNNER ADVANCE systems remotely across a network. To aid in implementing and managing an MFP infrastructure, imageWARE Enterprise Management Console facilitates the secure distribution of device configuration information and address books using SSL encryption, as well as distributing standard and custom driver configurations to client workstations on the network.

5.2 – Restricting Device Setup Screens

Administrators can lock-out access to device setup screens for unauthorized users from the control panel and Remote UI utility in an effort to protect its configuration information.

For more information on restricting access to the device’s setup screens, please refer to the Device Security section.

5.3 – Access Management System

The Access Management System enables the ability for administrators to restrict access to the features of the system at the device or function level. If device authentication is used, users will need to login prior to accessing the Main Menu. If Function Level Authentication in the Access Management System is used, users will be prompted for their credentials to use certain, often sensitive device features.

For more information on the Access Management System, please refer to the Device Security section.

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.
