White Paper: Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE Security

Section 3 — Information Security

Document Storage Space Protection

Mail Box Security

Each imageRUNNER ADVANCE system ships
standard with Mail Boxes for storage of scanned
and printed data. Mail Box security is provided
by the ability to designate a unique password for
access. Once a document is stored in the Mail
Box (if the Mail Box is password protected), a
user must enter their password to retrieve
documents.

Administrators can also use the Print Job
Restriction feature to restrict direct printing from
a desktop to the device. This forces all print jobs
to be stored in a Mail Box before the user can
output the print job at the device.

Advanced Box Security

The Advanced Box feature enables the
imageRUNNER ADVANCE system to serve as
a file sharing storage space. Users can save files
in a shared folder, or within their own personal
space in their native file format such as Word or
PDF. Each user’s personal space is protected
with security credentials and requires the user to
login prior to gaining access. Users can also
store documents for others to access within the
shared folder and any sub-folders.

Advanced Box also allows users to access their
stored files from their desktop using Windows
Explorer by mapping the folder as a network
drive. Upon mapping or accessing the folder, the
user will be prompted to authenticate through a
Windows login box.


Administrators can manage the Advanced Box feature through
the Remote UI interface and perform the following actions:

 Create user accounts and define type (Admin vs.

End User)

 Activate authentication and enable Personal Space

 Register network devices for remote access

 Select the file formats allowed for storage

(printable format only, common Office formats,
or all). By limiting to printable formats only, such
as TIFF, JPEG and PDF, the risk of viruses that
are commonly attached to .exe files is reduced.
Also, the Advanced Box can be scanned by anti-
virus software when shared as a network drive.
