Creating a secure environment
For security, we recommend that supervisors and an administrator use Security Strengthen mode and
establish an environment as follows.
-Where to set up the device
Set up the device in a place where only designated personnel can operate it. Also, select a place
security locked at night, and available to be monitored by an administrator in the daytime.
-User training
The administrator must provide training and information to users to maintain the security of the device.
Users should keep passwords set up by the administrator, and a password that they set up on their
own in a secure place.
The administrator is supposed to give the instructions for releasing the authentication function to a user
when creating a Box for that user, therefore the user should perform to release the authentication
function when machine operation is completed.
-Qualifications to be an administrator
A supervisor must select a reliable person who has adequate knowledge, technical ability, and
experience as an administrator, to whom to delegate administration of the device.
-Guarantee of service representative (CE)
A supervisor or an administrator can use Security Strengthen mode after confirming that a service
contract was signed with the service representative (CE).
Clearly state in the service contract that the service representative will not engage in any fraudulent
actions.
-Secure LAN
We recommend that you use an apparatus such as WEP code (802.11x) to prevent tapping during
communication when setting up a local area network.
-Protect and delete used data in memory and on the HDD
There are three kinds of image data that will be saved in memory and on the HDD: AHA compressed
data and uncompressed data (TIFF, PDF and PS 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 functions, 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 unrelated
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.
-Machine NIC setting
When the Security Strengthen mode is ON, the Machine NIC cannot be used.
-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.
If an enhanced password is set up as above, security will be improved when saving scanned data in
the Box. No one other than the administrator can delete the Box or Personal Folder in which scanned
data is saved, and changing the Box’s attributes requires authentication with the enhanced password.
In addition, authentication will be required to use scanned data saved in the Box.
-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.
-Administrator authentication
A service representative will set up an authentication data for an administrator.
The administrator must input a password to gain authorized access. Only one authentication string can
be registered per machine.
-Administrator Setting mode
If the Administrator Setting mode has been entered by successful administrator authentication, the
setting change of various machine functions will be available on the machine.
Be sure to exit the Administrator Setting mode if you leave in front of the machine while using the
Administrator Setting mode.
