Page 41: Security features, Secure the embedded web server

Network authentication
The product's most basic security feature is its ability to require a network login before a user can use
the digital-sending functions. This prevents unauthorized users from walking up to the product and
sending documents. Additionally, the product supports several authentication methods that offer a high
level of encryption and security.
Secure e-mail
In addition to the secure email option on this scanner, a number of third-party software vendors offer
services for secure e-mail delivery. The
Secondary e-mail
feature is designed to work with one of these
third-party software programs for users that require an extra measure of data security.
Restrict software access
In order to keep the product secure, you must also restrict access to the software programs that can be
used to configure the product.
You can also set a local administrator password using the General Security option on the Security
tab in the Embedded Web Server (EWS) to prevent access to the device-settings tabs. After the
password has been set, users can only see the EWS Information tab.
