SECURITY

Data and Information Security

Standard MFP security coupled with the optional Data Security Kit (DSK) protects and controls the major MFP

systems and subsystems (print, copy, scan, fax jobs, network settings, memory components, local user interface).

The Sharp data encryption method uses the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm 256* bit on all data

before it is written to RAM and the hard disk drive. It also provides overwriting routines for deleted data to ensure

that all information is virtually irretrievable by unauthorized users.

Access Control Security

To limit unwanted access to each device, Sharp MFPs can utilize account codes, user/group proles, passwords,

or external user accounts contained in the local device address book or global user directory. All user credentials

are transferred using a proven combination of Kerberos, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) or Digest-MD5 encryption to

help avoid interception.

Network Security

Sharp MFPs feature an intelligent network interface that can limit access to specic computers on a network

by IP or MAC address, and selectively enable or disable any protocol or service port on each device. All

communications to and from the MFP can utilize SSL for secure transmission over the network, and most devices

also support SMB, IPv6, IPSec, 802.1x and SNMPv3.

Fax Security

The architecture of Sharp MFPs provides a logical separation between the fax telephone line and LAN. It is,

therefore, virtually impossible for attackers to gain access to the internal systems of the MFP or the local network.

Additional security features are incorporated such as disabling broadcasting, allowing and rejecting reception

from specic numbers, user authentication and more.

Document Security

Protection for sensitive documents can be assured through Sharp encrypted Adobe PDF les for scanning and

printing, or access control and encryption using SSL protocols for scanning, printing, E-mail and setup.

Audit Trail Security

Sharp’s granular audit trail and job log feature provides comprehensive auditing of all user activity. Certain

federal regulations parameters, such as “to”, “from”, “when” and “le name” can be logged, reviewed and

archived for conformance. In addition, various centralized audit trail solutions are available through Sharp

Partner Program members.

* Encryption level is varies per model.
