Items

Description

Driver Encryption Key

(Permissions: Network Administrator)

Specify a text string to decrypt login passwords or file passwords sent from each driver when user authentication is specified to ON.

Register the encryption key specified using the machine in the driver.

Driver Encryption Key:Encryption Strength

(Permissions: Network Administrator)

Specify encryption strength for sending jobs from the driver to the machine. The machine confirms the encryption strength of the password appended to a job and processes it.

  • All jobs that are verified by [Simple Encryption] or user authentication are accepted.

  • [DES]

    Jobs encrypted with DES or AES are accepted.

  • [AES]

    Jobs encrypted with AES are accepted.

When you select [AES] or [DES], specify the encryption settings using the printer driver. For details about the settings of the printer driver, see the printer driver Help.

  • Default: [Simple Encryption]

Restrict Display of User Information

(Permissions: Machine Administrator)

Specify when user authentication is enabled. Specify whether to display all personal information hidden to confirm the job history using a network connection for which authentication is not provided. For example, the job history of Web Image Monitor is displayed as "********".

  • Default: [Off]

Restrict Use of Destinations (Fax)

Restrict Use of Destinations (Scanner)

(Permissions: User Administrator)

Specify whether to limit the available fax and scanner destinations to the destinations registered in the Address Book and searched with the LDAP Search function.

When you specify the setting to receive e-mails via SMTP using the Fax function, you cannot use this function.

  • Default: [Off]

Restrict Adding of User Destinations (Fax)

Restrict Adding of User Destinations (Scanner)

When you specify [Login Privilege], authorized users who have the privilege to use the current function can operate the job.

When you specify [Access Privilege], users who execute the job and the machine administrator can operate the job.

  • Default: [Off]

@Remote Service

(Permissions: Machine Administrator)

Specify how to use the @Remote Service.

  • Default: [Off] (no minimum character number)

Settings by SNMPv1, v2

(Permissions: Network Administrator)

  • Default: [Do not Prohibit]

Security Setting for Access Violation

(Permissions: Machine Administrator)

Specify whether to prevent the incorrect lockout caused by the network environment.

When you log in to the machine via a network application, a user may be locked out by mistake because the number of authentication attempts by the user does not match the number of the attempts specified on the machine. For example, access may be denied when a print job for multiple sets of pages is sent from an application. In this case, specify the setting to On, and control the lockout by period but not by counts.

When you specify [On], you can specify the period to deny the continuous accesses by a user (0 to 60 minutes). You can also specify how many user accounts or passwords can be managed (50 to 200) and the monitoring interval (1 to 10 seconds).

  • Default: [Off]

Password Entry Violation

(Permissions: Machine Administrator)

Specify the standards that the system recognizes the access as a password attack. If the number of authentication requests exceeds the number specified by the setting, the access is recorded in the Access Log and the log data is sent to the machine administrator by e-mail.

You can specify Maximum Allowed Number of Access up to 100 and Measurement Time up to 10 seconds. If the Maximum Allowed Number of Access is set to "0", password attacks are not detected.

  • Default

    • Measurement Time: [5 second(s)]

If you receive violation detection e-mails frequently, check the content and review the setting values.

Device Access Violation

(Permissions: Machine Administrator)

If the number of login requests exceeds the number specified by the setting, the access is recorded in the Access Log and the log data is sent to the machine administrator by e-mail. Also, a message is displayed on the control panel and on Web Image Monitor.

You can specify Maximum Allowed Number of Access up to 500 and Measurement Time up to 10 to 30 seconds. If the Maximum Allowed Number of Access is set to "0", access violations are not detected.

Also, you can specify response delay time for login requests when an access violation is detected (Authentication Delay Time) or the number of acceptable authentication attempts (Simultaneous Access Host Limit).

  • Default

    • Max. Allowed No. of Access: [100]

    • Measurement Time: [10 second(s)]

    • Authentication Delay Time: [3 second(s)]

    • Simultns. Access Host Limit: [200]

If you receive violation detection e-mails frequently, check the content and review the setting values.
