HP digital sender 9200c Manuale Di Servizio
Security features
The most basic security feature of the digital sender is its ability to require a network login before a
user can gain access to digital sending functions. This prevents unauthorized users from walking up
to the device and sending documents. Hewlett-Packard Company highly recommends that
authentication be enabled when configuring the digital sender.

For users who are concerned about e-mail security, the digital sender comes with a secure e-mail
option. A number of third-party software vendors offer services for secure e-mail delivery. The
Secondary E-mail feature is designed to work with one of these third-party software programs for
users who require an extra measure of data security. It differs from the regular e-mail feature in that
the data between the device and the HP DSS server is encrypted. An rfc822-compliant e-mail
message that includes the scanned data as an attachment is created in a folder on the HP DSS
server. The third-party software program, which is monitoring this folder, processes the e-mail
message and sends it out in a secure manner.

Restricting software access
In order to keep the digital sender secure, you must also restrict access to the software programs
that can be used to configure the device. By default, the digital-sending configuration options in the
EWS are disabled when the digital sender begins using the HP DSS service. The digital sender can
then only be configured by using the HP MFP DSS Configuration Utility. This centralizes
configuration tasks and helps control security. Make sure that the HP DSS is installed on a secure
server and that unauthorized users cannot use the HP MFP DSS Configuration Utility.

In addition, a password can be set in the EWS to prevent unauthorized access to the device-settings
tabs. After the password has been set, users can only see the EWS Information tab.

Securing HP Web Jetadmin

made. It should also be installed on a secure server and should be protected from unauthorized use.

Using the security lock
The security lock is a mechanical lock that prevents the removal of internal device components, such
as the hard disk, compact flash, and memory DIMM. The lock is a third-party computer lock similar to
the ones that are used to secure laptop computers. Purchase the lock separately, and then install it
on the product in the location shown in this figure.
