1.2 Security Functions 1
1.2 Security Functions
A password that can be set must meet the requirements of the Password Rules. The machine does not ac-
cept setting of an easily decipherable password. For details of the Password Rules, see page 1-8.
If a wrong password is entered, during password authentication, a predetermined number of times (once to
five times) or more set by the Administrator of the machine, the machine determines that it is unauthorized
access through Prohibited Functions When Authentication Error, prohibiting any further entry of the pass-
word. By prohibiting the password entry operation, the machine prevents unauthorized use or removal of da-
ta, thereby ensuring secured used of the machine.
By setting the Encryption Key, the data saved in the HDD is encrypted, thereby protecting the data in the
HDD. Note, however, that the Encryption Key does not prevent the HDD from being physically removed.
Make sure of a good operation control.
When the machine is to be discarded, or use of a leased machine is terminated at the end of the leasing con-
tract, the Overwrite All Data function overwrites and erases all data stored in all spaces of the HDD. The func-
tion also resets all passwords saved in the NVRAM to factory settings, preventing leak of data. For details of
items to be cleared by Overwrite All Data function, see page 1-8.
Check Count Clear Conditions
The following are the conditions for clearing or resetting the check count of the number of wrong entries when
[Mode 2] is set for Prohibited Functions When Authentication Error.
