Security Strengthen Mode
Description of Security Strengthen mode
The following items will have enhanced security.
• Protect and delete used data in memory and on the HDD
There are two kinds of image data that will be saved in memory and on the HDD:
AHA compressed data and uncompressed data (TIFF and PDF formats). Memory
and HDD areas containing the AHA compressed data is freed up when data is
deleted. However in normal mode data is not completely deleted so it could be
read through illicit means. In the Security Strengthen mode, data will be
completely cleared before freeing up image areas.
Regardless of the data type (compressed or uncompressed), the image area in
memory and on the HDD where the data has been saved will be freed up after it is
completely overwritten by the data disrelated to the image data.
• Enhanced password
The password is made up of 8 to 64 alphanumerical characters (case sensitive).
If a wrong password is entered, attempts to re-try cannot be made for five seconds.
• Access to the Box with a password
Set up a system that requires users to input an enhanced password as described
above, to save data or to print data saved in the Box on the HDD.
• Machine NIC setting
When the Security Strengthen mode is ON, the Machine NIC cannot be used.
• External access prohibited
No access is allowed over telephone lines other than CS Remote Care.
• Create, save and analyze an audit log
A history of security function operations will be created and saved. Date and time,
information identifying the person who made the operation, details of the
operation, and results of the operation will be saved, enabling analysis of
unauthorized access. This log will be overwritten if the audit area is depleted.
• Manager authentication
A service representative will set up an authentication data for a machine manager.
The machine manager must input a password to gain authorized access. Only one
authentication string can be registered per machine.
• Machine Manager Setting mode
If the Machine Manager Setting mode has been entered by successful Manager
authentication, the setting change of various machine functions will be available on
the machine.
Be sure to exit the Machine Manager Setting mode if you leave in front of the
machine while using the Machine Manager Setting mode.
