Security Functions 2 2.2
2.2.3 Description of Enhanced Security Mode
Security functions are enhanced as follows.
Protecting and deleting of remaining data after being used
There are two types of Image data stored in memory or HDD: AHA compressed data and uncompressed da-
ta, which are TIFF format, PDF format, and PS data. The image area of memory or HDD with AHA com-
pressed data is released after clearing the used data. In normal mode, the data is not completely deleted,
which may allow for unauthorized reading of the data. In Enhanced Security mode, the image area of memory
or HDD is overwritten with data unrelated to the image before the area is released, irrespective of whether
the stored image data is compressed.
Enhanced passwords
There are 5 different passwords provided for security functions.
- CE password
- Administrator password
- User password
- Account password
- HDD lock password
The CE password and administrator password should be comprised of 8 alphanumeric characters (the al-
phabetic characters are case-sensitive).
The account password should be made from 1 to 8 alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive).
The user password is normally made from 1 to 64 alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive); however, the
user password less than 8 characters cannot be used in the Enhanced Security mode. If you enter 64 or more
characters, the last entered character will be identified as the 64th character.
The HDD lock password should be made from 8 to 32 alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive). If you enter
32 or more characters, the last entered character will be identified as the 32nd character.
As for the CE password, administrator password and account password, the machine recognizes the last en-
tered character as the eighth character if 8 or more characters are entered.
The machine in the Enhanced Security mode also refuses any entry for 5 seconds, if a wrong password is
entered for one of the 5 passwords mentioned above.
Should you forget any security-related password, take action as follows depending on the type of password.
- For a user password or account password, contact your administrator.
- If you have forgotten the administrator password or HDD lock password, contact your service repre-
sentative.
We recommend that each password should be changed on a regular basis in order to prevent illicit access
or falsification of data.
Data access
Ensure that a user is required to enter an enhanced password which has been set by the administrator, in
order to save data into the user box stored in HDD or output the stored data.
When saving scanned data into a user box, you can improve security by setting an enhanced password. Only
administrators can delete folders and user boxes in which scanned data resides. Once a user box attribute
has been changed, user authentication with an enhanced password is required. User authentication is also
required for using saved scanned data.
Machine NIC settings
While the Enhanced Security mode is activated, the machine NIC cannot be used.
Blocking external accesses
No access is allowed over telephone lines other than CS Remote Care.
