7. Security

Security

Confidential information is always at risk of being copied without permission or subject to unauthorized access through the network. To protect documents from such intrusion, not only can passwords be set, but also the Extended Security function can be used to strengthen security.

For those who require increased document protection, we recommend the Extended Security function.

Primary Security Functions

Protecting Image Data Remaining in Memory

Protects image data remaining in memory. When a copy or print job is com- pleted, or a job is canceled, the data is secure.

Protecting against Unauthorized Access via Phone Line

Accepts only facsimile calls.

Authenticating Administrator

Protects essential functions for administrating document security using an ac- cess code. See p.34 “Key Operator Code”.

Extended Security Function

Note

When the Extended Security function is on, delivery server settings cannot be changed. Turn the function off to change the settings.

Setting Extended Security

Preparation

The Extended Security setting is not available unless the key operator code set in the Key Operator Code settings of the System Settings has six or more dig- its. See p.34 “Key Operator Code”.

Note

To ensure increased document protection under the Extended Security set- ting, we recommend you select [On: All] when programming a key operator code.
