Restricting Access to Address Book and Sending Functions Restricting Access to Address Book and Sending Functions Restricting USB Functions...
0SCJ-090 Restricting Access to Address Book and Sending Functions Some cases of information leakage can be prevented by limiting the available fax and e-mail destinations to those registered in the Address Book or LDAP servers, or by setting a PIN for the Address Book so that unauthorized users cannot add or edit Address Book entries.
0SCJ-091 Setting a PIN for Address Book The Address Book can be set to require users to enter a PIN in order to add new entries to the Address Book or edit existing entries. Setting a PIN to the Address Book can reduce the risk of documents being sent to unintended recipients because changes to the Address Book can only be made by users who know the PIN.
0SCJ-092 Limiting Available Destinations By limiting fax numbers that can be specified when sending documents to those already registered in the Address Book, those previously used, or those searchable from the LDAP servers, you can reduce the possibility of specifying incorrect destinations and prevent users from leaking information. When this function is enabled, the machine prohibits users from entering destinations using the numeric keys, adding new entries to the Address Book, and editing the existing Address Book entries.
0SCJ-093 Prohibiting PC Faxing You can prohibit users from PC faxing (faxing from a computer). Tap <Menu> in the <Home> Screen. Tap <Fax Settings>.

0SCJ-098 Disabling HTTP Communication HTTP is used for communications over the network, such as when you access the machine via the Remote UI. If you are using a USB connection or are otherwise not using HTTP, you can disable HTTP to block malicious third-party intrusions via the unused HTTP port. Disabling HTTP disables some of the network capabilities, such as the Remote UI, WSD printing, and printing with Google Cloud Print.
0SCJ-099 Disabling Remote UI The Remote UI is useful because the machine settings can be specified by using a Web browser on a computer. To use the Remote UI, the machine must be connected to a computer over the network. If the machine is connected to a computer via USB, or if you do not need to use the Remote UI, you might want to disable the Remote UI to reduce the risk of having your machine controlled remotely over the network by malicious third parties.
0SCJ-09A Implementing Robust Security Features Authorized users may incur unanticipated losses from attacks by malicious third parties, such as sniffing, spoofing, and tampering of data as it flows over a network. To protect your important and valuable information from these attacks, the machine supports the following features to enhance security and secrecy.
0SCJ-09C Enabling SSL Encrypted Communication for the Remote UI You can encrypt communication between the machine and a Web browser on the computer by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). SSL is a mechanism for encrypting data sent or received over the network. SSL must be enabled when the Remote UI is used for specifying settings for IPSec (Pre-Shared Key Method), IEEE 802.1X authentication (TTLS/PEAP), or SNMPv3.
Page 454
Viewing details of a certificate You can check the details of the certificate or verify the certificate by clicking the corresponding text link under [Key Name], or the certificate icon.

0SCJ-09E Configuring IPSec Settings Internet Protocol Security (IPSec or IPsec) is a protocol suite for encrypting data transported over a network, including Internet networks. While SSL only encrypts data used on a specific application, such as a Web browser or an e-mail application, IPSec encrypts either whole IP packets or the payloads of IP packets, offering a more versatile security system.
Page 457
Configuring IPSec Settings Before using IPSec for encrypted communication, you need to register security policies (SP). A security policy consists of the groups of settings described below. Up to 10 policies can be registered. After registering policies, specify the order in which they are applied. Selector Selector defines conditions for IP packets to apply IPSec communication.
Page 458
Select the [Use IPSec] check box and click [OK]. If you want the machine to only receive packets that match one of the security policies that you define in the steps below, clear the [Receive Non-Policy Packets] check box. Click [Register New Policy]. Specify the Policy Settings.

0SCJ-09H Configuring Settings for Key Pairs and Digital Certificates In order to encrypt communication with a remote device, an encryption key must be sent and received over an unsecured network beforehand. This problem is solved by public-key cryptography. Public-key cryptography ensures secure communication by protecting important and valuable information from attacks, such as sniffing, spoofing, and tampering of data as it flows over a network.
0SCJ-09J Generating Key Pairs A key pair can be generated with the machine when it is required for encrypted communication via Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). You can use SSL when accessing the machine via the Remote UI. Up to four key pairs can be generated to the machine. Self-signed certificates are used with key pairs generated in "Network Communication".
