Innovative document and device protection helps
ensure confidentiality
To help protect your data, the MX Monochrome Series offers several layers of security,
making Sharp the optimum choice to protect employee privacy and intellectual property. As the
leader in office equipment security, Sharp makes it easy for any business or government entity
to safely deploy digital copying, printing, scanning and faxing.
Authority Groups and Access Control
Advanced account management enables administrators to set authority groups for access to
features of the MX Monochrome Series. Administrators can control which department, for
instance, has full access to copying, printing, scanning and/or fax. Walk up users enter a code,
Local Name and Password, or LDAP User Authentication to access their features assigned to their
group. Users can also login utilizing a human interface device (HID) such as a Smartcard or
Common Access Card (CAC).*
Data Erase and Encryption*
To help protect your data, the
MX Monochrome Series offers an optional data security kit that
encrypts document data using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption. Additionally, the
data security kit erases the temporary memory on the hard drive by overwriting the encrypted data
up to seven times, offering an unprecedented level of assurance. Additionally, the data security kits
for these models comply to the new IEEE-2600-2008 security standard for MFP devices. This new
standard specifies security requirements and provides a new international reference to assess
contemporary MFP security.
Network Scanning Access
To help protect your network from unauthorized e-mail communications, the
MX Monochrome
Series
supports User Authentication, requiring users to login before performing any network
scanning operations.
Control Device Access Over the Network
To help restrict access to the device over the network, the
MX Monochrome Series offers IPsec,
SMB and extended support for SSL Encryption (Secure Sockets Layer), IP/MAC address filtering,
IEEE 802.1x authentication, protocol enable/disable and port management for maximum security.
Documents Remain Confidential
To help protect your printed documents from unauthorized viewing, the
MX Monochrome Series
offers encrypted PDF files for printing and scanning as well as Confidential Printing that requires
users to enter a PIN code in order to print a queued document. Additionally, Secure Fax Release
ensures received fax documents are held in memory until an authorized user enters a PIN code.
So compliance with healthcare regulations such as HIPAA is easier.
Tracking and Auditing Information
Legislation and industry policies require companies to be more aware of information flow from
their offices. Sharp offers both built-in and additional hardware/software which allows users to
control, access and track usage of each device on the network.
These scalable security offerings aim to protect your intellectual property, preserve confidential
information and help your business to meet regulatory requirements, such as the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and the Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLB). For additional
