2.2 Security Functions

2.2.1 Security Mode

The bizhub PRO 951 has two security modes.

Normal mode

Use this mode when the machine is used by a single person and there is low possibility of illicit access or operation. This mode is already set as factory default. To use the machine in normal mode, please refer to the user's guides provided for each operation.

Enhanced Security mode

Use the Enhanced Security mode when the machine is connected to a local area network, or to external networks through a telephone line or other means. An administrator determined for the machine management should follow the instructions in this guide, so that users can have a safe operating environment.

To use the Enhanced Security mode, please contact your service representative for the following settings.

A service representative should set a CE password for CE authentication and administrator password on the machine. The service representative uses the CE password for CE works. The administrator, who obtains the administrator password from the service representative, uses that password to make settings related to the Enhanced Security mode.

The administrator should never leak the administrator password out to others.

The administrator who acquired the administrator password manages the machine set up with the Enhanced Security mode by making the following settings.

- Turning on/off the Enhanced Security mode

- Adding/Changing registered users

- Deleting registered users

- HDD lock password

The administrator is also responsible in providing users with the following instructions.

- Never leak his/her password out to others.

- Be sure to log out when completing the machine operation after logging in upon the user authentication.

Please be sure to use the Enhanced Security mode to prevent unauthorized access to HDD.

With the Enhanced Security mode activated, the machine displays a security icon in the lowerright area of the touch panel.

The security icon will disappear when the Enhanced Security mode is deactivated. If the administrator accidentally deactivates the Enhanced Security mode, please contact your service representative. You should ask a customer engineer (CE) to check the security environment and settings before activating the Enhanced Security mode again.

2.2.2 Environment

Environment in which the Enhanced Security mode is recommended

An environment where the machine is monitored by a telephone line or a network.

Creating a secure environment

For security, we recommend that supervisors and an administrator use the Enhanced Security mode and establish an environment as follows.

- Qualifications to be an administrator: A supervisor selects a reliable person who has adequate knowledge, technical ability, and experience as an administrator, to whom to delegate administration of the machine.

- Guarantee of customer engineer (CE): A supervisor or an administrator can use the Enhanced Security mode after confirming that a service contract has been signed with a customer engineer (CE). Clearly state in the service contract that the customer engineer (CE) will not engage in any fraudulent actions.

Security Functions

2-4 bizhub PRO 951

2.2

- Secure LAN: Be sure to connect the machine to a local area network protected by firewall in order to prohibit access from external networks.

- An administrator should designate the installation location to be available only for product users.

- An administrator is required to be present at customer engineer (CE) works such as installation or main-

tenance.

2.2.3 Description of Enhanced Security Mode

Security functions will be enhanced as follows.

Protecting and deleting of remaining data after being used

There are two types of Image data stored in memory or HDD: AHA compressed data and uncompressed data, which are TIFF format, PDF format, and PS data. The image area of memory or HDD with AHA compressed data will be released after clearing the used data. In normal mode, the data is not completely deleted, which may allow for unauthorized reading of the data. In Enhanced Security mode, the image area of memory or HDD is overwritten with data unrelated to the image before the area is released, irrespective of whether the stored image data is compressed.

Enhanced passwords

There are 5 different passwords provided for security functions.

- CE password

- Administrator password

- User password

- Account password

- HDD lock password

The CE authentication password, administrator password, and account password should be comprised of 8 alphanumeric characters and/or symbols (the alphabetic characters are case-sensitive).

The user password is normally made from 1 to 64 alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive); however, the user password less than 8 characters will be unavailable in the Enhanced Security mode.

The machine in the Enhanced Security mode also refuses any entry for 5 seconds, if a wrong password is entered for one of the 5 passwords mentioned above.

Should you forget any security-related password, please take action as follows depending on the type of password.

- For a user password or account password, please contact your administrator.

- If you have forgotten the administrator password or HDD lock password, please contact your service

representative.

We recommend that each password should be changed on a regular basis in order to prevent illicit access or falsification of data.

Data access

Ensure that a user is required to enter an enhanced password which has been set by the administrator, in order to save data into the user box stored in HDD or output the stored data.

When saving scanned data into a user box, you can improve security by setting an enhanced password. Only administrators can delete folders and user boxes in which scanned data resides. Once a user box attribute has been changed, user authentication with an enhanced password is required. User authentication is also required for using saved scanned data.

Machine NIC settings

While the Enhanced Security mode is activated, the machine NIC cannot be used.

Blocking external accesses

No access is allowed over telephone lines other than CS Remote Care.

2.2 Security Functions

Create, save and analyze an audit log

A history of security function operations will be created and saved as an audit log. Date and time, information identifying the person who made the operation, details of the operation, and results of the operation will be saved, enabling analysis of unauthorized accesses. This log will be overwritten if the audit area is depleted.

Administrator authentication

A service representative is supposed to set up an authentication data for an administrator. According to this authentication data, the administrator gains authorized access by entering the administrator password. Only one authentication string can be registered per machine.

Administrator setting mode

The machine enters the administrator setting mode when password authentication is successfully made by the administrator. In the administrator setting mode, setting change of various machine functions is available.

With the Enhanced Security mode activated, the machine rejects any setting change in [06 Administrator Setting] - [01 System Setting] - [02 Date/Time Setting] on the Utility Menu Screen.

Be sure to exit the administrator setting mode if you leave in front of the machine while using this mode.

USB port functions

The following functions are still available using a USB port even when the Enhanced Security mode is activated.

- USB Memory ISW

- Printing charts via USB (for CE)

- Keyboard, mouse

Printer

A printer controller and a printer driver are required for printed output. Using the printer controller which supports the Enhanced Security mode, you can store the print data in the internal memory or on the HDD by entering a user name from the printer driver. The stored data can be output after successful authentication of the user name with its corresponding password entered from the printer driver when the data was stored. Please note that the stored data can potentially be output by others if you use somebody else's user name to store the print data.

For details of the printer controller and printer driver which support the Enhanced Security mode, contact your service representative.

For the operation procedure of the printer controller or printer driver, please refer to the user's guide for each.

2.2.4 Data Protected by the Enhanced Security Mode

Enhanced Security mode improves the security of data for users. Such data includes:

- Data stored within a personal folder (with password)

Also, the following data managed by the administrator is better secured:

- User data

- Data to manage the machine

Data exempted from the protection of Enhanced Security mode

When the machine is connected to PCs on a local network, passwords entered from PCs are not subject to the Enhanced Security mode. Please do not enter any password from such PCs for prevention of leakage.

Turning Enhanced Security mode ON/OFF

The administrator is responsible for turning the Enhanced Security mode ON/OFF.

The administrator should never fail to activate the Enhanced Security mode. Please be especially careful when turning the Enhanced Security mode OFF, being aware that data can potentially be accessed.

2.2.5 Protecting and Deleting of Remaining Data After Being Used

Data from copy, scan, and printer modes are stored temporarily into memory or HDD, and then deleted after being used if there was no operation such as storing them into a user box.

The data is compressed in a special way and generally it cannot be externally decompressed. When compressed data is deleted, a part of the data is either destroyed or overwritten and will not be able to be decompressed.

- The data temporarily stored in memory will be overwritten with invalid data when the job is interrupted or ended.

- The data stored in several areas of memory will be overwritten with invalid data simultaneously.

The data stored in a box will be overwritten with invalid data when a delete order is issued.

- If data is transmitted externally, it will be overwritten with invalid data when the transmission is completed.

- If the administrator issues a delete order for each box, it will be overwritten with invalid data.

2.3 User Authentication in Enhanced Security Mode

When the Enhanced Security mode is activated, functions related to the user authentication will be enhanced as follows.

- The setting item [User Authentication] on the screen accessed from [06 Administrator Setting] - [03 User Auth./Account Track] - [01 Authentication Method] is automatically set to [ON (MFP)].

- User authentication is always required under the following conditions to deal with user data to be protected:

– The main power switch is turned off. – The sub power switch is turned off. – Access on the control panel is pressed. – [RECALL], [COPY], [SCAN], or [STORE] on the touch panel is pressed. – Auto reset function is activated.

- The password for user authentication (user password) must be 8 to 64 alphanumeric characters (the alphabetic characters are case-sensitive). Otherwise, the password becomes unavailable. To continue using the user name with a password less than 8 characters specified, the administrator should change the password to be 8 characters or more.

- If a wrong user name/password (or account name/password) is entered in authentication, attempts to retry cannot be made for 5 seconds.

When a user accesses a user box with a specified password in HDD, all the password authentication operations are recorded as audit logs.

Initially, user authentication is not available. To enable user authentication, you need to specify a number of accounts to be distributed. Please refer to the POD Administrator's Reference for details.
