HP Scanjet Enterprise 8500 fn1 Document Capture-Workstation - Manual (Page 43)

Data affected
Data affected (covered) by the Secure Storage Erase feature includes stored fax files, stored jobs,
and HP and third-party application data.
This feature will not impact data that is stored on flash-based product non-volatile RAM (NVRAM) that is
used to store default settings, page counts, and similar data. This feature does not affect data that is
stored on a system RAM disk (if one is used). This feature does not impact data that is stored on the
flash-based system boot RAM.
Secure File Erase
Changing the Secure File Erase mode does not overwrite previous data on the disk, nor does it
immediately perform a full-disk sanitization. Changing the Secure File Erase mode changes how the
product cleans up temporary data for jobs after the erase mode has been changed.
Secure Disk Erase
Secure Disk Erase permanently erases all the data on the hard drive. If you have an encrypted hard
drive, this function also unlocks the encrypted hard drive, thereby allowing the drive to be read by any
device.
WARNING! Only use this option at product end-of-life. Since Secure Disk Erase permanently erases
all data (including the product operating system), the product will not boot up.
You can access the Secure Disk Erase feature from the product's Administrative Tools option on the Boot
menu. To access the Boot menu, press the Power button to turn off the product, press and hold the
Escape key on the keyboard, and then press the Power button to turn on the product while continuing to
hold the Escape key until the Boot menu displays.
HP High-Performance Secure Hard Disks
This product supports an encrypted hard disk that might be installed in the EIO slot, on the formatter
board, or in both locations. The only encrypted hard disk that is supported is the disk that comes
bundled with the product. Encrypted hard disks provide hardware-based encryption so you can
securely store sensitive scan data without impacting product performance. Encrypted hard disks use the
latest Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and have versatile time-saving features and robust
functionality.
Manage certificates
The product has a built-in self-signed certificate, which allows for encryption and a reasonable level of
trust for network communications with entities such as the LDAP server (communication that can include
user names and passwords). However, some networks require trusted certificates. In these cases, you
might be required to install a certificate from the network certificate authority.
The certificate manager also allows you to load certificate revocation lists (CRL).
