Even if the memory device is stolen, data leakage can be prevented by encrypting the data on the machine, such as Address Book, authentication data, and files.
Once encryption is enabled, all data subsequently stored on the machine will be encrypted.
You can also choose to encrypt or delete the data currently stored on the machine.
The encryption algorithm is AES-256.
When [Machine Data Encryption Settings] is specified, both NVRAM and MicroSD data are encrypted. When the encryption settings are configured, MicroSD is always initialized.
Data that is encrypted
This function encrypts data that is stored in the machine's NVRAM (memory that remains even after the machine is turned off).
The following data is encrypted:
System settings information
Network I/F setting information
User code information
Counter information
Address Book
Embedded Software Architecture applications' program/log
Logs (Job log/access log/Eco-friendly log)
Sent/received e-mail
Registered fonts
Spooled jobs
Thumbnails of stored documents
Stored documents
Registered stamps
Time required for data encryption and canceling data encryption
Data encryption: 36 seconds
Canceling data encryption: 28 seconds
Restoring Data
To transfer data to a new machine, restore the encrypted data. For details, ask the service representative.
The encryption key used for data encryption is required to restore the data.
You can specify whether to print the encryption key or store it on an SD card.
You can change the encryption key later.
