Security statements
The product supports security standards and recommended protocols that help you keep the product secure,
protect critical information on your network, and simplify the way you monitor and maintain the product.
IP Security
IP Security (IPsec) is a set of protocols that control IP-based network traffic to and from the product. IPsec
provides host-to-host authentication, data integrity, and encryption of network communications.
For products that are connected to the network, configure IPsec by using the Networking tab in the
HP Embedded Web Server.
Assign an administrator password
Assign an administrator password for access to the product and the HP Embedded Web Server so that
unauthorized users cannot change the product settings.
