The Canon Business Imaging Online data center uses AES128 encryption 
to secure physical storage. In addition, Canon’s virtual servers for CBIO 
applications, such as Authentication Services and Print Services, further 
enhance data security by encrypting end-user data with AES256 using 
separate authentication keys for each person.
