Section 6 – Logging & Auditing

Few security procedures can completely prevent the intentional leak of confidential information while maintaining high productivity, but if an occurrence does happen it is important to be able to trace it to the source. Canon has developed a number of cutting-edge technologies to provide administrators with powerful ways to discourage leaks and investigate unauthorized access.

6.1 – Document Scan Lock & Trace

On imageRUNNER ADVANCE systems, users and administrators can enable the optional Document Scan Lock & Trace feature to place restrictions on the use of hardcopy originals. If a locked document is copied, scanned or faxed on another imageRUNNER ADVANCE system with the document scan lock trace feature installed and enabled, the operation will be locked-out and a record of its unauthorized copying with the user’s name will be logged.

The “Lock” capability of the Scan Lock Trace feature needs to be separated from the “Trace” capability and the details listed below need to be added:

LOCK

The available restrictions are as follows:

1.Prohibit All: No one can make any copy/send/fax

2.Password Authentication: Allow to make copy/send/fax only if proper password is entered

3.User Authentication: Allow to make copy/send/fax only to authorized user with proper User ID and Password

TRACE

1.Ability to embed hidden Tracking Information such as User Name, Date/Time and Device Name on the background of the copied and printed document

2.Document Scan Code Analyzer for MEAP allows you to track Who, When and with Which device the document was copied or printed by simply scanning the document on the device

3.Only the authorized personal can access to the tracking information of the document by entering a required password

The Document Scan Code Analyzer for MEAP, which is available only to users in the system administrators group, to track who, when and with which device the document was copied or printed by simply scanning the document containing the hidden tracking code on the device.

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.
